I have accidentally created a shit reimplementation of lit.dev in my component lab while iterating on the parts of making my components that have felt lacking.

I think it’s time to just migrate to Lit.

People so often don't get that Lit isn't a framework, but it really helps understand our design decisions.

For example: Why doesn't Lit have an opinionated reactivity system for generic data, like Signals?

Enjoying building with @lit.dev. Simple and small. Components have strong decoupling because of shadow DOM encapsulation. Flexible. Works with basic reactive props or Redux-style architecture or signals. You can even pop the hood and do imperative DOM manipulation when you need to.

🥳 Congrats on the launch, @developer.mozilla.org!

Yet another piece of our web dev tool belt built with web components and Lit 😎
We’ve launched MDN’s new front end — and it’s just the beginning.

Intentionally targeting Baseline "Widely available" features when deciding on which ones to use. This means we're able to adopt modern CSS and web components for our UI.

Working with @lit.dev and finding it a great fit for academic projects.

The components are self-contained WebComponents you can drop anywhere. They rely on web standards, so unlikely to break over time and perfect for research code you build once and don't touch for years.

Here's a nice Lit tip 💡:

Let's say you want to hide some DOM but preserve component state. You can do this with the cache() directive:

Here when showView is toggled from true to false back to true, the DOM fragment for the expression is extracted, saved, and restored - preserving all the state.

Someone posted a link to TanStack Table on the @lit.dev discord. I didn't know about this before, and wow! it looks awesome!

The examples show very idiomatic Lit patterns for a headless UI utility. Reactive controllers, repeat(), `@state()`, and more.

👀 A Minecraft skin editor #builtWithLit!
Working on the rewrite of the editor (take 2). This is what is there so far. UI is mostly a clone of the first new editor attempt, but uses @lit.dev for all web component goodness.

I was reminded of my talk on async rendering with Lit: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypPR...

I think it's really useful if you're looking for analogs to React Suspense and such for web components.

Independent WCs allow a lot of control over scheduling to make very responsive UIs - and interoperably!
