What Hacker News says

Easy: web components have not implemented a single part of the original promise [1]. It's not Web Components that are happening, it's the dozens of frameworks required to make them work that are happening. Even mixpanel's library "does so by providing an easy-to-use state management and rendering layer built on Virtual DOM (the basis of the core rendering technology of React). Through use of the Snabbdom Virtual DOM library and first-class support for multiple templating formats" [2] Web Components are a very low-level extremely limited crummy DOM-based API that no one in their right mind wants to use. They are not happening. --- [1] https://fronteers.nl/congres/2011/sessions/web-components-an... [2] https://github.com/mixpanel/panel
