  1. Are Web Components & Cybersecurity A Better Combo?

    I'm not trying to dunk on popular #UI #frameworks – I'm sure they're totally fine for #cybersecurity stuff, probably get loads of reviews and #audits.

    But from my angle: Web Components are *native* to the #browser. Doesn't that just inherently reduce the risk of **#SupplyChainAttacks** (you know, like a rogue `npm install` on a bad network) for your #AppSecurity?

    Or am I overthinking it, and the #framework choice is less important than the #browser, #OS, or #device running it? What are your thoughts, #DevCommunity?

    Quick context: I've got a #ReactJS #messagingApp (repo here: github.com/positive-intentions) and a separate #UIFramework (repo here: github.com/positive-intentions) built with #Lit (which uses Web Components). I'm genuinely wondering if there's a compelling #cybersecurity reason to refactor the chat app to use my #WebComponent UI framework. Might be a whole new level of #SecurityByDesign for #FrontEndDev.

    FYI, same question's on Reddit here: reddit.com/r/ExperiencedDevs/c, got some good #insights, but want to make sure nothing's getting overlooked! Let's discuss #InfoSec #WebDev #JavaScript #OpenSource #TechQuestion.

  2. I realized that i need to separate the #frontend and #backend. I'm glad i didn't do a lot of work on the frontend yet. I will probably go with #react. Since the dashboard will display a lot of informations, which must update live, a #uiframework becomes necessary.
