Svelte and Vue-inspired single-file components compiler

Overview

Single-file components for vanilla JavaScript offer a streamlined approach to organizing code, inspired by Svelte and Vue. This innovative compiler allows developers to write their code in a modular style, combining HTML, CSS, and JavaScript into single files. The compilation process transforms your components into a more browser-friendly format while maintaining a clean structure, simplifying the development workflow significantly.

With a focus on usability, this basic proof of concept not only enhances code organization but also features live-reload capabilities. This means that as you make changes to your components, the compiler automatically refreshes your code for instant feedback, making it ideal for rapid development.

Features

  • Single-file Component Structure: Write your components in a modular format, with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript encapsulated within a single file for better organization and management.

  • Live-reload Support: Save changes to your components and see them instantly reflected in the browser, streamlining the development process and enhancing productivity.

  • Automatic Compilation: The build script compiles your single-file components into optimized, browser-ready files, ensuring your project is efficient and performs well.

  • Custom Element Creation: Easily integrate your components into any HTML page by defining custom elements that match the component filenames, allowing for multiple instances without code duplication.

  • Flexible Tag Order: You have the freedom to arrange the template, script, and CSS tags in whatever order you prefer, providing flexibility in structuring your files.

  • Output to Public Folder: Upon compilation, the script automatically organizes and minifies your output files into a designated public folder for easy deployment.

  • Lightweight Solution: Designed to help developers write modular code without the added complexity of features such as two-way binding or templating, making it a simple yet powerful tool for vanilla JavaScript projects.
