Quiz ⭐️ Answer is a year later! Predict Web Developer Roadmap 2021.

Introduction

4 Jan, 2020. Web developer roadmap 2020 is launched.
In my view, 2020 is going to be a huge change.

IE 11 dies and MS Edge reborn as chromium.
Next year's technology will be put into practical use.
Therefore we need Web Developer Roadmap 2021 now.


Web Components will upgrade

Web Components will upgrade

REASON

  • Web Components has long been troubled by MS Edge, but it's time to put it to practical use.
  • LitElement is one of the Polymer Projects promoted by Google. It helps develop WebComponents.
  • Shadow DOM is also used on the Web version of Apple Music.

Snowpack will be on the list

Snowpack will be on the list

REASON

  • We no longer need to transpile to es5. And with Snowpack, building web applications is 10 times faster. No bundler required.
  • No more waiting for your bundler to rebuild your site every time you hit save. Instead, every change is reflected in the browser instantly.

Svelte will be on the list

Svelte will be on the list

REASON

  • Svelte could be the third choice after React and Vue. Modern JavaScript frameworks are very large and complex.
  • Svelte is trying to solve the problem with a completely different approach than React. The State of JS 2019 also shows a high level of interest.

Other small things

Semantic HTML will downgrade

Semantic HTML will downgrade

REASON

  • HTML tags have become less meaningful in the era of custom tags.

Cookie will be on the list

Cookie will be on the list

REASON

  • Starting with Safari, cookie policies are changing every day.

In conclusion

That's my WebDev 2021 idea.
I'm a front-end developer in Japan.

Even if new technology is announced until now
In some cases, the adoption was forgotten to support legacy browsers.

This year is a chance to change consciousness.
I hope all developers can spend their time on creative things.

Thank you for reading it until the very end.

I'd love to see Deno finally be production-ready. It's such a promising project.
