Almost all of us started using LWC instead of Aura or Visualforce however there are multiple occasion where we need to come back to either Aura or Visualforce.
I was not able to find single consolidated list of limitations of LWC and therefore thought to post this blog.
Feel free to comment on this blog post and help me keep this updated.

Thanks Jitendra. Good to know about this.
Hi Jitendra,
I was looking for an article like this. Thank you for the great information.
Quick questions, most of these shortcomings can be taken care of by embedding LWC is Aura components right?
Thanks for the info, I think Quick Action API will be available from next release, not sure.
It says LWC is an open source component now
In that case do we still have the above mentioned limitations
