Used to work on Web Components (the browser side.)
Although we didn't take it as a competitor, in hindsight it was - at least in a sense. Both are component-based technologies, and the expressiveness of React and ES6+ made WC less relevant. I think WC is still nice to have, but it is no longer a must-have as it was originally envisioned.
The JS ecosystem has largely solved the problem by themselves without browser vendor's help (besides improvements of JS itself.)
