Why Lightning Web Components?
Modern browsers are based on web standards, and evolving standards are constantly improving what browsers can present to a user. We want you to be able to take advantage of these innovations.
Lightning Web Components uses core Web Components standards and provides only what's necessary to perform well in browsers supported by Salesforce. Because it's built on code that runs natively in browsers, Lightning Web Components is lightweight and delivers exceptional performance. Most of the code you write is standard JavaScript and HTML.
You'll find it easier to:
Find solutions in common places on the web.
Find developers with necessary skills and experience.
Use other developers' experiences (even on other platforms).
Develop faster.
Utilize full encapsulation so components are more versatile.
