Lit-element and other Google Projects

[GPT]

Hello Polymer-dev Team,

I am a little bit confused about the projects coming from Google.

There are frameworks like Angular, AngularJS, Amp, Polymer, etc. What
is the relation between them right now and in future? Is there any
kind of reference to learn more about the general plan that Google has
in mind? Are they developed by accident? Does Google spend money here
and there?


Kind regards,

Pavlos

The best way to understand things is to realize that Google is not a monolithic company with a single plan for web-related work. Angular, AMP, and Polymer are different teams. Angular has been around the longest and was created before web components. AMP and Polymer (and Polymer's successor LitElement) are based on web components, but AMP is a restricted set of HTML + specific web components designed to guarantee performance and privacy characteristics, while Polymer and LitElement are general web component base classes.

Hello Justin,

Thanks a lot for your time to respond.

I understand. It's like a Mother car company which owns Child
companies and each one manufactures different brand name cars.

The difference is the "value/quality/etc for money" which does not
exist in Google projects since there is not price for using any of
them.

Kind regards
