shadowdom is awesome but has many tradeoffs that put it in YAGNI territory and should only be a last resort not a default
(lightdom works great ! it got us here) #webcomponents #webstandards #webdev
@brianleroux Also true with declarative Shadow DOM?
@voxpelli until ubiquitous across browsers without a polyfill and has feature parity I'm reserving judgement. Just hand waving otherwise.
@brianleroux yeah, Firefox remains :/
@voxpelli indeed and our experiments have shown behavior is still divergent and, well, just not there yet. I do not like it when tech ppl champion an unimplemented solution to current irl problems so I try to avoid that sandpit.
Yeah, the thing is... it's implemented in a rushed manner all the time in many #browsers. Capitalistic #EverGreen race. They make #Firefox look like a dummy, but what if it doesn't want unstable bits to creeple up the web?
#Web, as already dunked up as it is, needs other #browser teams stamping a "done" mark on stuff that is actually complete instead of blindly following the trend of hot implementations and #LivingStandards. We shouldn't be doing these improvements a cheap public stunt, tests come first.
