Coding with Web Standards
summary
Frames the history from Jeffrey Zeldman’s Designing with Web Standard to today and makes three concrete claims: Ajax/XMLHttpRequest births modern web interactivity, web components can carry objects via JS properties not just string attributes (demo uses getters/setters), and service worker plus the Cache API yield instant loads and offline browsing. Recommends trying lit-element as a light abstraction and Google’s workbox for caching strategies, and shows these patterns actually work.
