Web Components have some nice features, some bad features, and no killer feature. Developers have mostly chosen to ignore them for other approaches (React, Vue) where there are better ergonomics and stronger network effects.
- meiraleal 2y agoShadowDOM should be a killer feature for people that wants to make web scrappers life a bit more difficult.
- nsonha 2y agojust do a quick scan in this thread, many say it's the one thing that makes web components not work for them. It's the opposite of what a killer feature means
- meiraleal 2y agoWhat users/devs like and what CEO/PMs want (stop bot scrapping) are different things. It was a joke tho, I use custom elements heavily but never with ShadowDOM. It is indeed a PITA.
