Minze
Dead-simple JS framework for native web components.
Overview
Minze is a straightforward JavaScript framework designed for creating native web components efficiently. Its name, derived from the German word for "peppermint," reflects its refreshing approach to web development. With Minze, developers can leverage an intuitive abstraction layer around the web components API, simplifying the creation and management of components. It caters to both novice and experienced developers, enabling rapid prototyping and building robust component libraries.
The framework embraces modern web technologies, allowing for seamless integration into existing projects without the need for cumbersome build tools. Minze's versatile nature means you can rapidly develop design systems that are shareable across teams or with the wider developer community.

- Vite
Vite is a build tool that aims to provide a faster and leaner development experience for modern web projects
- Vitepress
VitePress is a static site generator designed for creating documentation websites. It offers a lightweight and fast development experience using Vue.js and Markdown, with features such as live-reload, theming, and customizable layout components.
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Storybook
Storybook is a tool for developing and testing UI components in isolation. It provides a sandbox environment where you can experiment with different props and states to see how your component responds.
- 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.
