But you can!

Here's an example of passing complex objects as attributes (look for zx-listeditor): https://github.com/wisercoder/uibuilder/blob/master/WebCompo...

And here's the web component itself: https://github.com/wisercoder/uibuilder/blob/master/WebCompo...

And here's the tiny (500-line) lib that enables it: https://github.com/wisercoder/uibuilder/#jsx-for-web-compone...

"You can pass complex objects using web components, if you also use something other than web components" isn't really all that much of a defense of web components.

It is 223 lines of code: https://github.com/wisercoder/uibuilder/blob/master/dist/uib...

You object to this tiny amount of code?

How do you make this work with frameworks like Svelte which, when server side rendering, cast all props to string (!) attributes?

That should be an easy bug fix in Svelte.
