      So, web components • break a11y • break progressive enhancement (no SSR, broken without JS) • don't work with SVG • share a global namespace instead of being modular • ... Imagine how much tedious moralising we'd see if JS frameworks shipped with similar limitationshttps://twitter.com/sarahmei/status/1198069119897047041 …

      Rich Harris added,

      PSA: There is currently no way for web components to be accessible if you use the isolation feature (called “shadow dom”). Isolate the label from the input field, for example, & you break all the assistive technology - which requires they be tied together with ids.

      Could you please elaborate more on the broken SVG point?

      you can't do something like <svg> <x-axis min="2000" max="2019"/> <y-axis min="0" max="100"/> <scatter-plot points="..."/> </svg> because custom elements are HTML by definition (they extend HTMLElement). Totally incompatible

      I'm not sure I understand your example. Im using web components in a project and svgs work totally fine. I agree with all the other points though.

      Do you mean you're putting SVGs inside CEs? Because yeah, of course that works — you can always put an <svg> inside an HTML element. But you can't put custom elements inside an <svg>

      Insufficient extensibility is a problem for sure, and one we can address, bit it's hard to take it as an argument against expanded extensibility offered to date (unless you expect the platform to be frozen from this date onward).

          It's simpler than that: if I'm starting a new app today, I can either a) hope that my requirements don't evolve to include SVG components, or b) use tools and practices that don't rely on custom elements

          You could use today's tech and build your app. And if your needs expand use the tools you need then. Saying you can't use a new tech today because it doesn't solve all future problems is like saying you can't drive the nail because the hammer doesn't work for screws too!
