WebComponents from Scratch

“The web components specifications grew out of the desire to provide a canonical way of creating components that browsers can understand.” - @JamesLMilner

Sounds like what your React/Angular/??? components look like? Let’s see the differences and commonalities. For that let’s dive deep into the anatomy of web components.

In this session we will build a web component, starting from an empty HTML page. We will go through all parts that make up a web component by building one from scratch, live. You should leave this session knowing how a web component can be made, you might need to look up one or two things later, but all the concepts will be covered and you will get the tools to evaluate or even build your own web component tomorrow. We will cover all your questions and maybe even build the according code right on the spot.

Topics we cover contain: Custom elements, Shadow DOM and HTML Templates. (We will also discuss why HTML Imports are out of the race.)
