I have a custom element that displays a message inside three nested divs: It works, but I’m not happy with having all of the HTML markup inside of strings.

Adding an event within a WebComponent

How to avoid repetition of CSS properties across multiple Web Components
I’m building with Web Component without any 3rd-party framework. And I have vanilla <button> in several of my components, and I have to reset EVERY ONE of them before I do my custom styling on them because resetting it once at a root level doesn’t work since the properties involved are not one of inheritable styles that pierce through shadow

WebComponent that extends HTMLButtonElement is not calling constructor() and connectedCallBack()
I’m trying to create a web component button but when I add it in HTML the constructor() function is never being called. I’m facing some problems: 1- The constructor() is not being called so my event listener is not being added to the element; 2- connectedCallback () lifecycle is not being called too, so my button is not getting the
