    This covers all but one of the lifecycle methods that you get access to with custom elements, and in actuality, these are what you'd use most of the time. The last one is adoptedCallback and you'd most likely encounter it in the context of elements [4]. Even though I don't have plans to go through it in the series, the concepts and the way we've covered them so far should give you a good idea on how to begin unpicking it if you do. Other than that, we have enough under our belt to delve even deeper into what web components have to offer.

    All of this might feel like a lot of work to put some HTML on the screen and update a few attributes, and it is. Even though we've achieved fine-grained updates in our component, it took a fair bit of reasoning about the lifecycle methods to get there. The reason the custom elements API feels a little cumbersome is because it's low level by design to give you the most control. This means that you can do anything with it, including build your own abstractions on top of it.

    There are other component-based abstractions that will give you the same effect with a lot less work, and some even give you the same level of fine-grained control. Though we'll look at a few UI frameworks alongside web components, the ultimate aim of this series is to demonstrate what the web platform is capable of, and get you to start thinking about the different tradeoffs you make when picking different tools. My hypothesis is that by understanding what the platform has to offer, you'll be in a much better position to evaluate the complexity you choose to take on when building experiences. Lastly, I'll leave you with a little spoiler of what's to come: web components are cool and they are here to stay.
