    Everything about this is gutting to me because industry trends are premised on the lie that we can afford as much JS as we're sending today. We simply can't, and the folks who can get us out of this mess feel adrift rather than empowered? Ugh:https://css-tricks.com/the-great-divide/ …

        I still contend that the way out is for web components to offer up more than frameworks can deliver. Namely, a way to define and initiate WCs without JS. HTML imports and templating/data binding with JS disabled.

        We tried designing an element element multiple times; probably time to try again!

        We don’t see many job descriptions/postings that value what we can provide. We see lots of “You are an expert at [insert JS framework].” It’s demoralizing.

        This times a thousand. If there is something without frameworks, the pay is usually not very good.

        There is something I don't understand: if you've worked in any company, you know far too well how "barely works" makes managers happy and that quality of work is always an uphill battle for developers to lead. The same applies to HTML/CSS: if it barely works it's "good enough"

        This explains why companies hire for the biggest bang for the buck: a JS Dev who can barely write HTML is seen as more valuable compared to someone who can write awesome HTML but no JS. So the question is: how do you express the need for better skills in that area in biz terms?
