The only feeling that this post gave me is: "Get over it. If there was no HDD you would still be programming assembly." If you don't want to bet on new technologies than don't. No harm done. It is like the startup world,

That's a different discussion and type of argument than the author of the reply means to introduce here. It is not a naming conflict because of another product that is too well known to use its name (for both legal and other reasons).

I agree, hence the last line in my original reply. Web components are not yet ready for (most) production work. Too be honest I'm happy the only work I do in the Web area is an SDK. We chose to use vanilla javascript and typescript ove
