Why and Why Not?

What is Component based development

allows for reusability of components (e.g., buttons, forms, modals)
promotes separation of concerns (e.g., UI components, business logic, data handling)
enables easier testing and maintenance (e.g., testing individual components in isolation)
facilitates collaboration among developers (e.g., different teams can work on different components)
enhances scalability of applications (e.g., adding new features without affecting existing ones)
improves performance by loading only necessary components (if js and css are split)

requires a shift in mindset from traditional monolithic development
may introduce complexity in managing dependencies between components
can lead to over-engineering if not done carefully (e.g., creating too many small components)
requires careful planning and design to ensure components are reusable and maintainable
may require additional tooling or frameworks to manage components effectively (e.g., Storybook, component libraries)

provides a visual interface for developing and testing components in isolation
allows for easy documentation of components (e.g., usage examples, arguments, slots)
enables collaboration among developers and designers (e.g., sharing components, feedback)
integrates with various testing tools (e.g., playwright)
supports addons for additional functionality (e.g., accessibility checks, theming)

requires additional setup and configuration (e.g., installing dependencies, configuring addons)
may introduce a learning curve for developers unfamiliar with the tool
can become complex if not organized properly (e.g., managing multiple stories, addons)
requires maintenance to keep stories up-to-date with component changes
may not be suitable for all types of components (e.g., complex components with heavy business logic)
