| 2 | HTML5 browsers, reduce the need for JSNI code, and melt away to as little overhead as possible. |
| 3 | It is particularly suited for situations where direct low level access and small code are important |
| 4 | such as mobile devices. |

| 6 | Currently, Elemental is generated from the WebKit project's WebIDL binding definitions which are used also |
| 7 | by the Dart project. Because of this, vendor prefixed APIs also show up (webkit specific). These APIs are |

| 9 | as Mozilla/IE vendor prefixed calls, or as standardized non-prefix calls backed by multibrowser shim. |
