but also build long-term value for people and businesses.” //futurefriendlyweb.com/

UI Bootstrap Web Components
WEB COMPONENTS 1. Custom Elements
“Everything is an element.” //polymer-project.org/docs/start/everything.html
<img src="foo.png"> <input type="range">
<google-maps latitude="" longitude=""> <ajax-call url="" on-response=""> <video is="video-camera">
<x-gif src="foo.gif"> //geelen.github.io/x-gif/
<x-gif src="foo.gif" ping-pong>
//coding.smashingmagazine.com/2014/03/04/introduction-to-custom-elements/
WEB COMPONENTS 2. HTML Imports
<link rel="import" href="foo.html"> <g id="circles" fill="#000000"> <circle id="n" cx="50" cy="18.4"
r="18.4"/> <circle id="ne" cx="72.4" cy="27.6" r="18.4"/> <circle id="e" cx="81.6" cy="50" r="18.4"/> <circle id="se" cx="72.4" cy="72.4" r="18.4"/> <circle id="s" cx="50" cy="81.6" r="18.4"/>
WEB COMPONENTS 3. Shadow DOM

THE OUTCOME Meaningful Markup Reusable Elements Consistent UI?
THE CHALLENGES Proliferation of crap Performance A11y & I18n
“Web components are just a tool that will enable you
to write better… front end code. They are not a silver bullet that automagically makes everything work.” //soledadpenades.com/2014/03/25/web-components-silver-bullet/
REMEMBER THE BASICS
THE BASICS accessibility
None
THE BASICS progressive enhancement
“When an elevator fails, it’s useless. When an escalator fails,
it becomes stairs. We should be building escalators, not elevators.” //jakearchibald.com/2013/progressive-enhancement-still-important/
THE BASICS performance
//moto.oakley.com
“Oakley’s monster page of baubles.” //hawksworx.com/blog/oakleys-monster-page-of-baubles/
471 HTTP requests 85.4MB page weight 2'45" DOMContentLoaded 4'10" Load
47 percent expect a web page to load in two
seconds or less. 40 percent abandon a website that takes longer than three seconds to load. //blog.kissmetrics.com/loading-time/
79 percent of shoppers dissatisfied with performance are less likely
to visit again. 52 percent say that page load performance is important to their site loyalty. //blog.kissmetrics.com/loading-time/
“Performance is of course a hugely important measure in this
age of the mobile web, but performance for performance’s sake trivialises what we do.” //threechords.org/blog/the-web-less-engine-more-gas/
