47: X-Tag - The X Generation

Spela upp

Summary

Danny Blue (@dee_bloo), Erik Isaksen (@eisaksen), and Tyler McGinnis (@tylermcginnis33) talk to Daniel Buchner (@csuwildcat) about the X-Tag project and some if its interesting features, such as mixins. We discuss the Web Component spec as well as the features that have been agreed upon and which ones may still need some work. Big companies like Google have thrown their full support behind the Web Components technology umbrella. Will others such as Microsoft follow suit? and what will it take for browser vendors to implement web components natively.
