I read about web components a couple of years ago. What excited me was the prospect of having libraries of ready made UI elements that I could use.

Those of us who programmed in say VB6 or .NET winforms back in the day may remember that you could purchase some "ready made" grid-table editor with lots of functionality and pretty.

But I haven't seen that open source nor commercial.

It's amazing how much the current web frontend dev have to reinvent over and over again.
