"Componentization is a powerful paradigm that allows component users to build applications using 'building blocks' of functionality without having to implement those building blocks themselves, or necessarily understand how the building works in fine detail. This method makes building complex applications easier by breaking them down into more manageable chunks and allowing the building blocks to be reused in other applications."
"But nay! Jay Hoffman dug up the 1998 proposal cited above and shared it with me from a recent Igalia Chat (which is a great podcast, by the way) he had with Brian Kardell, Eric Meyer, and Jeremy Keith. So, we're really talking about a feature that's been in the works for nearly 30 years. Style encapsulation is firmly a part of the time capsule that is web history."
Componentization enables developers to assemble applications from reusable building blocks without implementing or fully understanding each block's internals. This approach simplifies creation of complex applications by breaking them into manageable, reusable chunks and supports style encapsulation to isolate component styles. Web components gained visible attention recently through multi-part explanatory series, yet proposals and early work date back to 1998. Historical proposals show that style encapsulation and component-oriented thinking were considered decades earlier. Context from early proposals helps explain why modern features exist and highlights the web's accumulation of arcane artifacts and long-term evolution.
