    Thanks for this, gives my intuition some words to back it up!

    I find especially compelling how the author separates concrete problems like reconciliation (hard to argue against) from the abstract principle of "everything should be a component" (can be argued more easily IMO).

    Shamelessly plugging https://github.com/morris/vanilla-todo here; in this try-hard-to-stay-vanilla case study there are similar conclusions: Reconciliation is hard, CSS global namespace is problematic, etc. - I also did not use web components, but could not explain/justify that decision well (until now!).

    A few years back I stumbled into something a bit more complex, still done in pure js, just for the hell of it: https://github.com/morris/vanilla-todo

    And then wrote my own version, with code a lot closer to modern react, with undo/redo and other niceties - https://github.com/ivank/vanilla-teuxdeux

    And what I leaned is that is astonishingly easy to write code that would be understandable to people coming from the redux crowd. Maybe that’s because redux is just such a simple concept in and off itself - a glorified switch on a big object. And it’s also quite easy to hack a simple version of vdom to make it all work.

    What’s missing from all those vanilla js efforts though turned out to be testability. There is a ton of code in the modern js world just to allow you to mock/test your components, and thats for me the real tragedy of vanilla js.

    I have no idea why W3C crowd have not invested into standardizing js tests in all these years…
