For alerts a sharable template is doable. So maybe a bad example, LOL.

But for buttons & heros not so much. I've worked with apps that have a "button" template. I find it overkill.

For one project we have some components rendered both server-side & with Vue.

Other cases I've had are sharing styles across multiple apps and pulling in markup from a 3rd party, like Stripe or a WYSIWYG.

But you're right. Ideally this wouldn't be an issue w/ view templates.

To me this is solving Tailwind's biggest issue: consistency & context.

Comparing it to Bootstrap or Foundation adding the class `alert alert-danger` to a div tells my coworkers that it's an "alert" & it will look like an alert everywhere. If I want to change how alerts look, I change the CSS

With Tailwind you'd have `bg-red-100 border border-red-400 text-red-700 px-4 py-3 rounded relative`. Then I'd have to change my HTML everywhere to update the appearance of alerts & its not always obvious that I'm looking at an "alert" in code. I'd end up with different looking alerts, cards, buttons, etc all over my app

CDN helps with the page load/latency variable of Google' PageRank but won't equal AMP.

To get AMP-like speed you'd need: CDN, no render-blocking javascript, minimized image files, "lazy-loaded" assets & inlined CSS for "Above the Fold" content. On the server side you want to cache content with something like Varnish & send it over an "Edge" network like Akamai or Fastly. Ideally everything is served over HTTP2 or SPDY.

Doing all that replicates what AMP does.

>There are a few details that may save Picnic’s pizzas from tasting as if a robot made them. For starters, the dough preparation, sauce making and baking — the real art of pizza — is left in the capable, five-fingered hands of people.

The dough making & stretching is still done by humans.

It looks like this robot distributes sauce, cheese & toppings (it only shows one topping, though). Then cooks it.
