      The previous article in the series has a couple paragraphs at the start to introduce the idea and why:

      Modern JavaScript frameworks like React JS and Vue JS have popularized the functional programming paradigm and declarative approaches to web app development. While these frameworks have made creating dynamic web applications more accessible, it’s worth exploring the potential of web components in this landscape.

      To me it seems more like an exploration and PoC for the purposes of learning than a real alternative to any particular frontend library, but that’s just my interpretation. The subject is interesting anyway, even if I won’t do this myself in a real world project at work.

        yeah thats right.

        i want to see if creating some kind of thin-transparent-wrapper like this, could make it so i dont have to update it as a dependencies. consider that we recently got react 19. this will be followed by a scramble by many to use the latest and most stable version.

        i cant guarantee any stability in my current progress, but in theory, by relying on the underlying web component from the browser, it becomes future-proof.

      Elm is good.

      For this project I specifically wanted to use web components, but in the style of React.

      There is no practical use case for this “UI framework”. It’s a personal learning process.
