Known as “CEM” to its friends, a CEM is a community standard JSON format that surfaces information about your component APIs. The analyzer scans your class-based component to build up a “manifest” of all the methods, events, slots, parts, tag name, and CSS variables you want to expose. It works on a single component or an entire system’s worth of components.

But it also means we’re likely to return to the common pattern of cultural consumption from previous centuries, where sophisticates live in their own separate taste world that is not AI-dominated. I refuse to believe this is an “elitist” position when anyone with self-determination and curiosity is also free to join in this separate taste world, and its members should encourage others to do so.
