It's a good development but this article is misleading and ignorant. Web Components cannot replace web frameworks like ReactJs, Angular or Vue. At least not yet. Im not sure if this guy have used any of these frameworks before.
I agree! When you come to the Philippines, skip Manila and go all the way to Cebu or anywhere Visayas area or Davao.
Internet?? Well yea! Depends on the area you're in. I have 50mbs on a fiber connection and no major problem so far. Except when I travel to nearby islands, then internet connection can be really bad.
Philippines - It's the best place to be. Just imagine coding in front of a breath taking view. Everything is cheap. No BS. Plus the beautiful nature and everybody speaks english.
