Going Buildless

Read Original

This article explores the appeal and feasibility of a 'buildless' web development workflow, where the files in a developer's editor are the same ones delivered to the browser. It discusses the trade-offs, primarily performance, and examines modern techniques for achieving composition in HTML without a build process, such as using web components for native-like HTML imports.
