Maybe you thought they were just multi-line strings — but ES6 template literals are in fact really powerful. With Tagged Template Literals your browser now has a native way of handling templating, that is both scalable and extensible - and really performant. In this talk I will not only explain the native building-blocks but also introduce lit-html, which is a templating system by Google, build on this very concept. In the end, I will demo a webcomponent-baseclass that packages this approach up very nicely, so you can write components kinda like react, but with a total footprint of only ~2kb.
