Therefore, this will tell the browser that the UI needs a render if the attribute is one of the component's observed attributes we explicitly provided with `static properties = ['my-name']`;
> The `props` property of `WebComponent` works like `HTMLElement.dataset`, except `dataset` is only for attributes prefixed with `data-`. A camelCase counterpart using `props` will give read/write access to any attribute, with or without the `data-` prefix.
-> However, note that like `HTMLElement.dataset`, values assigned to properties using `WebComponent.props` is always converted into string. This will be improved in later versions.
+> Another advantage over `HTMLElement.dataset` is that `WebComponent.props` can hold primitive types `number`, `boolean`, and `string`.

- By extending our WebComponent base class, you get an easy authoring experience as you would expect in writing your components
+ By extending our base class, you get an easy authoring experience as you would expect in writing your components:
- - A signals-like props API that keeps your property changes and UI in sync
+ - A props API that synchronizes your components' property values and HTML attributes
- Sensible life-cycle hooks that you understand and remember
- Extensible templates & renderer (examples in-progress)
- Provided out-of-the-box with McFly, a powerful no-framework framework
