One point to add.
Web Component technology is older and more used than most people know.
The <video>, <audio>, <textarea>, <input> and many more complex HTML tags are implemented in each Browser with Web Component technology.
<video>, <audio>, <textarea>, <input>
In Chromium you can tell by the user-agent (= tech term for Browser) label on the shadow-root:
Us mortal developers can not access the HTML elements inside user-agent shadow-root.
Also see: javascript.info/shadow-dom
But... that technology was not available to us 3rd party developers
What we now call "Web Components" (Custom Elements API, Templates, shadowDOM)
IS that very same technology available to us all
But we can't access user-agent managed shadowDOM!
So everyone who claims Web Components is young, not yet fleshed out, bare metal, hardly used, technology...
Does not understand how the Browser works.
