The Goodness of Web Components NOW!

Speaker: Roland Guijt A web component is like a custom control or widget that can be reused. Sometime in the future, web components will be supported by every browser. Until then, we can already use them in every browser! Knockout.js does an excellent implementation for web components. We'll introduce web components and discuss the different implementations, including the one that will be natively supported. Then we'll zoom in on one implementation that's very well done: web components in Knockout.js. It leverages the thing Knockout is best at: bindings between the view and a JavaScript model to make your application as modular as it can get. Web components can be preloaded or loaded asynchronously, can receive and process messages, and can be easily packaged so that you can use them across projects. Join this session to change your perspective on how web development should be done.
