i remember seeing web components years ago, it sounds like they've improved a lot.

what do you do about the lack of (i assume) ecosystem? due to the ready ubiquity there's practically a library for everything. do you find that using WC you are having to hand roll a lot? i don't mean to be a package slave but for complex and tedious things like graphs / charts.

There is an ecosystem for Web Components: Polymer, Lit, WCB, ready-built web components at https://webcomponents.org
