Stencil Component Starter

This is a starter project for building a standalone Web Component using Stencil.

Stencil is also great for building entire apps. For that, use the stencil-app-starter instead.

Stencil

Stencil is a compiler for building fast web apps using Web Components.

Stencil combines the best concepts of the most popular frontend frameworks into a compile-time rather than run-time tool. Stencil takes TypeScript, JSX, a tiny virtual DOM layer, efficient one-way data binding, an asynchronous rendering pipeline (similar to React Fiber), and lazy-loading out of the box, and generates 100% standards-based Web Components that run in any browser supporting the Custom Elements v1 spec.

Stencil ec-components are just Web Components, so they work in any major framework or with no framework at all.

Getting Started

To start building a new web component using Stencil, clone this repo to a new directory:

git clone https://github.com/ionic-team/stencil-component-starter.git my-component
cd my-component
git remote rm origin

and run:

npm install
npm start

To build the component for production, run:

npm run build

To run the unit tests for the ec-components, run:

npm test

Naming Components

When creating new component tags, we recommend not using stencil in the component name (ex: <stencil-datepicker>). This is because the generated component has little to nothing to do with Stencil; it's just a web component!

Instead, use a prefix that fits your company or any name for a group of related ec-components. For example, all of the Ionic generated web ec-components use the prefix ion.

Using this component

There are three strategies we recommend for using web ec-components built with Stencil.

The first step for all three of these strategies is to publish to NPM.

Script tag

• Put a script tag similar to this <script src='https://unpkg.com/my-component@0.0.1/dist/my-component.esm.js'></script> in the head of your index.html
• Then you can use the element anywhere in your template, JSX, html etc

Node Modules

• Run npm install my-component --save
• Put a script tag similar to this <script src='node_modules/my-component/dist/my-component.esm.js'></script> in the head of your index.html
• Then you can use the element anywhere in your template, JSX, html etc

In a stencil-starter app

• Run npm install my-component --save
• Add an import to the npm packages import my-component;
• Then you can use the element anywhere in your template, JSX, html etc
