>> Is this just shifting complexity from JS to HTML? > Very well said. This is the problem. It is a problem. Counterintuitively, it is also a solution. Lifting some complexity out of JS and into HTML solves some problems. Lifting all complexity out of JS and into HTML creates new problems. For example, I have a custom web-component `<remote-fragment remote-src='...'>`. This "shifts" the complexity of client side includes from "needing a whole build-step with a JS framework" into directly writing a plain html file in notepad that can have client-side includes for headers, footers, etc. This results in less overall complexity in the page as a whole. Shifting the "for" loop and "if" conditionals from JS to HTML, OTOH, results in more overall complexity in the page as a whole. |
