Meeting minutes

UI Components

https://github.com/MichaelWangzitao/MiniApp-UI-Componets/blob/main/explainer.md

zitao: did some home work to research related standards
… rough work
… help needed
… current MiniApp implementations use different markup languages
… for example, if a developer wants to develop a miniapp for both WeChat and Alipay, there will be difficulties at present
… some events have the same name, but the implementations in different miniapp platforms are different
… comments are welcome
… we can standardize component names and attributes
… need to align with Open UI, web components etc.
… wrote a gap analysis comparing with existing standard UI components
… I think the CG can work on it together
… any comments?

Dan_Zhou: components like input
… do we extend HTML or just standardize it in MiniApps
… maybe we should create new elements in MiniApps because some attributes are different from HTML

zitao: we can reuse existing standards as much as possible
… and we need to extend them to support more use cases

Dan_Zhou: the image element is different from HTML

zitao: you can help me improve the document
… it's open discussion
… do you think the CG should pick up this topic and start standardizing it?
… if so we can move the repo to the CG

Dan_Zhou: make sense to me

martin: collecting what are the common elements and their attributes as use cases from all miniapp vendors
… and then we can discuss the standardization process
… overlaps the work in Open UI and Web Components
… we should engage collaboratively with existing groups
… collect use cases and common components
… and decide whether we should create a new markup language or reuse existing ones
… focus on use cases first

Dan_Zhou: I think each components should be discussed separately

zitao: works for me
… happy to discuss with you one by one

QingAn: HTML provides similar components
… whether to use HTML components
… not sure all the vendors are willing to change existing implementations

xfq: I can create a repo for it

<martin> +1 to start discussing UI components in a new repo

IoT

https://github.com/w3c/miniapp/issues/157

QingAn: no major update
… plan is to @@
… in the last CG meeting martin showed some interest

martin: i haven't added input apart from the comment in the issue
… will send some input soon

Dan_Zhou: any other comments?

MiniApp Addressing

Dan_Zhou: addressing
… thanks for Yongjing's comments
… updated the PR
… now all MiniApp vendors use custom URI scheme
… if we use https
… we may face some compat problems
… for example
… https Deep Link is not supported on Android 6.0
… would like to ask other vendors' opinions

QingAn: problem with iOS?

Dan_Zhou: iOS updates quickly
… so not a problem

QingAn: @@
