Redefining HTML with Web Components

I really enjoyed Dan's style and the thoroughness of his presentation. Great balance of information and live coding!

Dan took the "teeth" out of web components for me with this talk, turning it from something confusing and intimidating into something understandable and exciting. Thanks so much for a clear, insightful talk! Just awesome.

Dan started out with the warning that if we were hoping to come away with something we could use right away we were going to be disappointed because Web Components is not fully baked yet. That was a disappointment but the presentation was not. He was well organized, had an excellent command of the subject, and was an engaging speaker. I came away understanding the parts of Web Components, what they do, and what the status is in defining and implementing them. Excellent job.

Thank you all for the kind comments!
