One of my criteria these days is portability… web components are a frustrating API to use directly but one of the reasons I develop with Svelte is that it can produce web components that, should we pivot frameworks some day in the future, will be able to live inside another framework.

React absolutely fails in that regard. I try not to be a conspiracy theorist but I think React actively avoids web component compatibility as a form of vendor lock in.

React 19 has full support for web components and it scores perfectly on the “does your framework play nicely with web components” test suite whose name I don’t recall.

React 19 release was just postponed to God knows when, the post says.
