Web Components with John Rogerson

Web development is becoming increasingly modular, and web components are part of that evolution towards modularity. But as a new spec, many devs remain uncertain about why, when and how to use them. Front-end expert John Rogerson returns to the show to help de-mystify web components. John not only defines web components, but offers some practical use cases and draws analogies to web dev approaches we are all already familiar with. We discuss the pros of web components (modularity, extensibility), the cons (new technology, undefined standards, accessibility) and how they may reflect the future of web development.
