Do I need to create ts files instead of js files and then compile them ? Is it going to be built-in for Umbraco 12/13 ? Can I "declare" my compiled file inside the manifest ?
I heard that there's a goal to completely replace angularJS with W3C web components. I think it's a great initiative. Is there any doc where it is documented at a high level ? I am not aware of things like routing, DI, etc. with the Web components.
Many thanks, I am looking forward to know more about this new cool tech :)
Angular is currently the only way, but you could get around this by having minimal angular entry points that offload things to your web component. This is an old project, but you may want to look at this React Angular Chimera repository by CSS Squirrel https://github.com/cssquirrel/React-Angular-Chimera as whilst it's about react, the approach should probably work for web comonents too.
Type Script is optional, but yea, you'll need to setup a build system to compile your web components into standalone javascript files. You'd then create your own App_Plugins folder and setup a package.manifeset to have Umbraco load your files into the back office.
This is correct, but it's very early in development yet so it's unlikely you'll find any docs on it. I did start a blog series on my findings exploring the new codebase which you can find here https://dev.to/mattbrailsford/series/20031 which should also contain links to various documents HQ have produced so should be a good place to start.
