We've been reinventing the same widgets all over in every new platform. HTML showed us the true direction for universality. Then XML came along. All we need to do is design a standard for widgets based in xml and a standard for object and platform communication.

I, as a developer, would like a universal platform for developmnet, be it html, xml, svg, or whatever comes next.

Call it AXIS, Application Xtended Interface Standard.



What you're looking for is web components / shadow Dom. It's a method of defining widgets in HTML, and then invoking those widgets as if they were a single element. No need to develop yet another specification for ui
