A few weeks ago, Zach Leatherman began discussing his plans to add web component support to Eleventy. Starting with his announcement post, Adding Components to Eleventy with WebC, developers can now start working with a plugin, WebC, to test out this new support. The plugin docs have a great explainer as to why this support is being added, but to me it mainly boils down - running our web components during server build and not on the client-side with JavaScript. Now, so far, my own experiments with web components have been fairly simple, small things, so I'm not too concerned about the client-side impact, but heck, if we can ship no JavaScript, that's better than a small amount.
