Benefits of Using Lit

1. Small bundle size - Lit is only ~5KB gzipped
2. Web standards - Built on Web Components
3. Reactive properties - Automatic re-rendering on property changes
4. Declarative templates - Easy to read and maintain
5. Code reuse - Components are easily shared across pages

Development

To build the components:

npm run build

To develop with hot reload:

npm run dev

Component Usage

All components are ES modules and can be imported directly:

import './components/app-main.js';

Or use the barrel export:

import { AppMain, VTButton, sharedStyles } from './components/index.js';

Styling

Components use Shadow DOM for style encapsulation. Shared styles are available in shared/styles.js and include:

• CSS custom properties for theming
• Utility classes
• Common component styles (buttons, cards, forms)
• Loading and animation helpers

Theme variables automatically adapt to light/dark mode preferences.
