In comparison, Angular is a monster, and React is designed for the old browser capabilities, and is now staying around by inertia, not by inherent quality.
Funny you should say that when the current advise for web components is to avoid Shadow DOM (almost like the plague)
> no web components
As in?
> no template strings
Why would React need template strings? React is not the only framework that doesn't use template strings for anything (Vue, Solid, Svelte come immediately to mind). And it's hard to accuse those of being behind the times when Solid is literally the reason for the upcoming native signals proposal
Could you provide the source for this advice?
Yes, there are some people who say to build web components without shadow DOM, but I'm convinced they're only building leaf nodes so they don't need composition with slots. As soon as they try to build any kind of container element they hit big problems.
That's not true. Web components that render nothing will contain only their children as nodes, that's good enough for a good amount of container use cases.
So you can have something like:
<uix-modal>
<uix-button icon="wifi"></uix-button>
<dialog>
<div class="flex flex-col gap-4 p-4 w-[640px]">
...
</div>
</dialog>
<uix-modal>
