Building Components w/o Borders

An exploration of how to build a design system using reusable, framework-agnostic components. We will briefly explore framework fatigue, what web components are and what problems they solve juxtaposed to frameworks. We will examine how to build a component library using the emerging library Stencil from the team behind Ionic. We will then demonstrate how to write simple wrappers for these components. Finally, we will consume these components from different frameworks such as React and Angular.
