- Markdown simplifies writing by replacing complex HTML with simpler syntax.
- Custom Elements act as HTML macros, allowing for complex components to be simplified in Markdown.
- Markdown and Custom Elements can be combined, with Markdown handling text formatting and Custom Elements managing complex HTML structures.
- Custom Elements cannot be self-closing in HTML, requiring explicit closing tags for proper functionality.
- Markdown pre-processing can address limitations like multi-line attributes in Custom Elements and self-closing tags.
- Designing Custom Elements involves creating a specification language that balances simplicity with functionality.
- Client-side Markdown processing is possible but may have limitations compared to server-side processing.
- Server-side processing of Custom Elements in JavaScript environments can expand HTML before sending it to the client.
