Re: [WICG/webcomponents] [templates] A declarative JavaScript templating API (Issue #1069)

dmitriid left a comment (WICG/webcomponents#1069)

The question I don't see answered: *who is this for*?

- Is it for the "end user" who will use it to write "vanilla" JS/TS without relying on libraries and frameworks?
- Is it for the library/framework authors to use in their work?

So far the answer seems to be "neither" because:

- too many questions still have to be resolved for the end user: how do we pass data, signals, promises; how do we do loops, conditionals etc.
- unclear benefits for the lib/framework authors besides "you can compile to this syntax"

This is the question that needs to be answered first. Before we end up in web components situation scrambling to fix end-user parts (what do you mean we need form data, and accessibility, and styling, and...?) while lib/framework authors largely find them useless.
