I like what I'm seeing in Web Component technology, but it's not fully there for me yet. Suppose your base Design System is web components. Most Microfrontend (MFE) teams will still pick up an off-the-shelf React, Vue, Angular, etc. But VDOM and web components don't always play nicely. If you have Parent-Child web components, specifically 1 parent with N-immediate children, React can't resolve this gracefully. Every render past the first breaks with Stencil. That's a pretty significant issue, because (very) common components like Select dropdowns are modeled as 1 parent with N immediate children. So you can't any longer stay in React's declarative model. The workaround (last comment in issue) has you writing imperative code to fix the problem. It has that "using D3 in React" vibe to it. It works, but it's not nearly as elegant as if you h

Been using Stencil for the past year or so as a way of extending our Angular app with client-specific apps (eventually looking to open this up to clients to upload their own components / apps). Overall it's done a good job but I still find the build system somewhat esoteric (there are a number of different approaches and it took some effort to figure out the right one for our use case). I have noticed development has slowed down over the past couple months: https://github.com/ionic-team/stencil/graphs/commit-activity Hoping it's more a case of it approaching maturity as opposed to it being neglected...

Shameless plug, but I think Stencil should be on this list: https://github.com/ionic-team/stencil It's going to be running behind all Ionic apps in the near future, that's hundreds of thousands of apps in the app stores and the web. Also, SkateJS is missing. Both Stencil and Skate are Web Component libraries, "frameworks" insofar as React is a framework.

We use TypeScript heavily at Ionic. Ionic Framework 2+ is TS: https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic Our new web component compiler Stencil is also TS: https://github.com/ionic-team/stencil

How is this licensed? Perhaps I'm missing it, but I can't seem to find mention of it on the site or in the repo: https://github.com/ionic-team/stencil
