After hearing it one too many times, where folks are asking, "can’t you just give us a Carbon-based Tailwind theme," I had to pour my thoughts out on this topic.

Hey @nytimes , did you forget to drink your coffee this morning?

Putting @GE_Appliances and @Lowes on full blast here, this will be a long one!

As part of a recent kitchen renovation, I purchased a GE Cafe fridge which I was excited to use, as my older fridge was starting to go.

@GE_Appliances and @Lowes , you guys are dead to me.

Hey @BoschGlobal, I'm really enjoying your fridge despite having to pay double the cost for it (in a manner of speaking)!

This mad lad created a todo app with React, Svelte, Solid, and Vue. Web components made this experiment easier to accomplish!

New blog post on how web components can lead to significantly looser coupling of JavaScript frameworks!

I prove it by writing an app where, uh, *every single component* is written with a different framework 😅

New blog post! This one’s for the frontend folks. It’s about writing websites that will still work in 20 years. https://t.co/2ngftJxInm

FUD:
Web components suck! No one is using them!

But is that true?

Google:
Our annual $35 billion revenue YouTube product is built on Web Components.

Microsoft:
We converted our entire content platform from React SSR to Web Components which doubled the perf. We finally crossed the $10 billion annual revenue milestone.

Adobe:
We built Photoshop Web with Web Components.

Salesforce:
Our $31 billion annual revenue platform has been based on Web Components for years.

SpaceX:
We built our dashboard system with Web Components and launched rockets into space.

GitHub:
We've been building parts of the GitHub experience with Web Components for years.

Anyone else building with Web Components?

Amazon, Apple, Alaska Airlines, BBVA, Begin, Blizzard, BYU, Clever Cloud, Cloud Four, Comcast, EA, 11ty, ESRI, Ford, GE, GitLab, General Motors, GuideCom, IBM, Infragsitics, ING, The Internet Archive, Ionic, Joomla!, NASA, Netlify, Penn State, Reddit, Red Hat, SAP, Scania, Stripe, Ubisoft, Vaadin, Visa, Wolkswagen, Wordle, etc.
