I mean that the parse would stop processing nodes at that point. I expect that many people will be unhappy with this approach since it would have the same ramification as a "sync" script element (without "defer" or "async" attributes). > What would happen in my example where the my-module.js appears before my-el? > I'm guessing from your response above, it would need to be <script > type="sync-module" src="my-mobile.js"> to be any different, and just moving > the <script type="module"> tag as-is would not change anything? The HTML parser would stop parsing until my-module.js is loaded. - R. Niwa
