Dive into the core theory of Web Components, custom HTML elements that are part of browser specifications and can be used across any HTML platform. Learn how to build highly functional Web Components that connect to backend databases, implement AJAX forms, utilize lazy loading techniques, handle authentication, and leverage IndexedDB for instant and offline functionality. Discover the process of creating data-driven APIs that enable seamless deployment of functionality and content in any app or website. Gain insights into how Web Components allow applications to be built using various frameworks and exported as true micro-services and micro-apps. While not covered in depth, the talk also touches on adding service workers and manifest files to create installable Progressive Web Apps (PWAs).
