This week we talk about Customized Built-in Elements, part of the Custom Elements specification which hasn't had as much attention as other parts of the Web Component specs. Customized Built-in Elements allow developers to extend native DOM elements and add additional functionality. In this episode learn all about how they work, what benefits they provide and some practical use-cases along with a discussion on browser support for this exciting feature of the platform.
