So another way to say "the JS ecosystem ignores markup" is to say that this markup-based approach is counterweight to a JS-based ecosystem.

I'm receptive to that. The joy and accessibility of the web as a platform comes from all the stuff you can do before you resort to JS.

The part that gives me squicks is folding this work into AMP, which has specific design goals centered around making Google more money.

If Chrome were throwing a bunch of new tags into HTML that turned common JS framework idioms into tags, I would be 100% on board with that.

REALLY? I'd loathe that. We'd guess badly at what people really need.

I think AMP is already making those guesses and doing so in mainstream HTML would not make those guesses any less accurate.

Web components are an interesting way of experimenting with markup to discover new idioms without baking them into browsers forever.

Yep! And when we have high confidence that they're really what "belongs", we can add allegories to the language and lower the price to use

So really our only point of disagreement is on the specific components being advanced by AMP, which give me the squicks.

Yep! And again, more a question for @cramforce than me. I'm a fan of their vocabulary and can't wait to see it evolve.

@cramforce can only spend so much of his time trying to assuage my feelings about AMP and I have probably exceeded my allotment :-)0 replies 0 retweets 0 likesThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
