The web as a GUI toolkit

Luckily you can now use standard JS modules and web components to nicely organize code and widgets without buying into any tooling or framework. Things are getting a lot better.

But then you're buying into Web Components and their limitations instead.

Luckily, whatever people could do in the pas, they can still do today, because the web is largely backwards compatible. Then at some point they'll run into some things that seem harder than they need to be, at which point they can start looking at the tooling that was designed to solve those exact problems.

do you have a sample app / repo to illustrate ? You can use repl.it to host
