My favorite way to know if a product/service works as advertised is to… use it. The devil is (usually) in the details, and the proof is in the eating. People naturally identify with the software/services they use, so getting an accurate picture (as an outsider) is tricky nowadays. A TOS can also give insight into a company’s product/service.

Watching the web tech mainstream/influencers transition back to a html first approach is fascinating. Frameworks are returning to single file soc approaches that bundle and progressively enhance scoped js and css components automatically.

See syntax for webc/11ty, svelte, enhance, lit/google, vuejs marko, astro, and more in a rare history lesson.
