Drab
Interactivity for You
Overview
The drab library is a JavaScript component library that focuses on providing useful functionality and wrappers around browser APIs. It is designed to be minimal in size and has one dependency, Svelte. The components support server-side rendering and transitions can be disabled for users who prefer reduced motion. The library takes a more opinionated approach compared to other headless UI libraries by providing basic HTML structure and default positioning for every component, while still allowing for customization using styles, slots, and slot props.
Features
- Components are minimal in size and have one dependency, Svelte.
- Progressive enhancement or fallback noscript message for components whenever possible.
- Transitions can be disabled for users who prefer reduced motion.
- All components support server-side rendering.
- Basic HTML structure for every component with default positioning.
- Customizable using styles, slots, and slot props.
- Typescript
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
- Web Components
Web components provide a way to create reusable, encapsulated UI components using standard web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. They allow developers to create complex UI components that can be easily shared across multiple projects and frameworks. Web components are built using four main specifications: Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, HTML Templates, and ES Modules.
