I'm very much in favor of this. Getting rid of jQuery is a very important step to make Django future-prove. In my other (non-legacy) projects, I currently replaced all JavaScript against webcomponents. I actually made good experience with the StencilJS compiler. Compared to Svelte, I really appreciate the clean syntax and the readability of the generated code of those components.
The big advantage of webcomponents is, that they play well together with all existing JavaScript frameworks out there, hence embracing all developers using one of those. I recently found this article on Hackernews <https://hackernoon.com/apple-cements-the-unlikely-rise-of-web-components-6b1d3g1t> which boils it down quite well. Many years ago, I wrote a Django app to integrate client-side form validation with Django's server side logic. See here https://django-angular.awesto.com/combined_validation/ At that time it was based on AngularJS. The idea however remains the same and could well be applied to an approach using webcomponents. I'm very much interested in this topic, because I already implemented parts of this in AngularJS, although this now is an obsolete technology. – Jacob -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
