How fast are web components?
September 10, 2024
It is often said that web components are slow. This was also my experience when I first tried building web components a few years ago. At the time I was using the Stencil framework, because I didn’t feel confident that they could be built well without a framework. Performance when putting hundreds of them on a page was so bad that I ended up going back to React.
But as I’ve gotten deeper into vanilla web development I started to realize that maybe I was just using it wrong. Perhaps web components can be fast, if built in a light-weight way. This article is an attempt to settle the question “How fast are web components?”.
