HTML is the bedrock foundation of everything that happens in a web browser. JavaScript frameworks present a compelling story of a certain kind of web development, but they must by definition limit their users in certain fundamental ways. Web components offer an alternative and complementary perspective on our craft: the ability to define our own HTML elements. In this talk, we will learn what similarities web components have to framework components models, and what advantages they have over them. We'll review some popular use cases for web components, and we'll discover a future for web development in which framework authors and users rally around standards and "move up the stack" together.
Web Components: not Just Another Framework
Abstract
HTML is the bedrock foundation of everything that happens in a web browser. JavaScript frameworks present a compelling story of a certain kind of web development, but they must by definition limit their users in certain fundamental ways. Web components offer an alternative and complementary perspective on our craft: the ability to define our own HTML elements. In this talk, we will learn what similarities web components have to framework components models, and what advantages they have over them. We'll review some popular use cases for web components, and we'll discover a future for web development in which framework authors and users rally around standards and "move up the stack" together.
