Server Side Rendering and Web Components are a pretty good combo. The Web Component lifecycle gives you a clean place to attach and clean up behavior as server-rendered components are added to and removed from the page. AI slop diagram:

AI is great at creating a UI. It'll happily one-shot you a shopping cart or login page. AI is not great when you care about exact details. After a week in the AI agent + CSS trenches, Opusfived is cathartic. Others feel this pain. It's not just me 🥲

@marcgravell I’m using dapper with AOT and the new support added for dynamic parameter would save a lot of changes. Do you have a plan on the next public release?

I talk to an agent like a co-worker when it gets things wrong. i.e. nicely 😇 But if an agent keeps getting something wrong and I tell it off, it picks up on the emotion and takes a step back to figure out why. Crazy how anthropomorphised AI is.
