Lion is a set of highly performant, accessible and flexible Web Components.!
They provide an unopinionated, white-label layer that can be extended to your own layer of components.
- High Performance: Focused on great performance in all relevant browsers with a minimal number of dependencies.
- Accessibility: Aimed at compliance with the WCAG 2.2 AA standard to create components that are accessible for everybody.
- Flexibility: Provides solutions through Web Components and JavaScript classes which can be used, adopted and extended to fit all needs.
- Modern Code: Lion is distributed as pure es modules.
- Exposes functions/classes and Web Components: Ships a functionality in it's most appropriate form.
> Note: Our demos may look a little bland but that is on purpose. They only come with functional stylings.
> This makes sense as the main use case is to extend those components and if you do you do not want to override existing stylings.
Astro migration
- Keep using /docs on the root level as we used it in the master branch. The documentation is copied into Astro related directories on npm run start and when when anything in /docs is updated.
- Replace manually all references to assets in all md files so that we imply that the path is produced from the directory where the md file is located. F.e. new URL('../src/wa-combobox/assets/obama.jpeg', import.meta.url).href; should new URL('./src/wa-combobox/assets/obama.jpeg', import.meta.url).href;. Note double dot is replaced with one dot. See this PR for the reference.
- Rename all .mjs files to .js ones if they are used by mdjs examples
$3
- To start in dev mode run npm run start
- To start in production mode:
- Run npm run build
- Run npm run preview
$3
- There is a browser console error on collapsible page:
``
__mdjs-stories--use-cases.js:40 Uncaught TypeError: shadowRoot.getElementById is not a function
Note. There is the same error on master. This issue is not caused by the migration
How to install
`bash`
npm i @lion/ui
How to use
$3
This is the main use case for lion. To import component classes, and extend them for your own design system's components.
`js
import { css } from 'lit';
import { LionInput } from '@lion/ui/input.js';
class MyInput extends LionInput {
static get styles() {
return [
super.styles,
css
/ your styles here /
,`
];
}
}
customElements.define('my-input', MyInput);
$3
There's a couple of "systems" in lion which have a JavaScript API. Examples are localize, overlays, ajax, etc.
`html`
$3
You can also use the lion elements directly, although this is likely not a common use case.

| @lion/ui | 
| Set of components |
| @lion/ajax | 
| A small wrapper around fetch |
| Singleton-manager | 
| A singleton manager provides a way to make sure a singleton instance loaded from multiple file locations stays a singleton. Primarily useful if two major version of a package with a singleton is used. |
| Babel plugin extend docs | 
| A plugin which rewrites imports and templates according to a configuration. This enables the reuse of existing documentation from source packages while still using your extensions code. |
| Providence analytics | 
| Providence is the 'All Seeing Eye' that generates usage statistics by analyzing code. It measures the effectivity and popularity of your software. With just a few commands you can measure the impact for (breaking) changes, making your release process more stable and predictable. |
| Publish docs | 
| A tool that copies and processes your documentation (in a monorepo) so it can be published/shipped with your package. |
| Remark extend | 
| A plugin for remark to extend markdown by importing from source files. |
| Rocket preset extend lion docs | 
| When maintaining your own extension layer of lion you most likely want to maintain a similar documentation. Copying and rewriting the markdown files works, but whenever something changes you need copy and rewrite again. To do this automatically you can use this preset for rocket. |
Technologies
Lion Web Components aims to be future-proof and use well-supported proven technology. The stack we have chosen should reflect this.
- lit
- npm
- Open Web Components
- Modern Web
- Mocha
- Chai
- ESLint
- prettier
- ES modules
- Lots and lots of tests
Rationale
We know from experience that making high quality, accessible UI components is hard and time consuming:
it takes many iterations, a lot of development time and a lot of testing to get a generic component that works in every
context, supports many edge cases and is accessible in all relevant screen readers.
Lion aims to do the heavy lifting for you.
This means you only have to apply your own Design System: by delivering styles, configuring components and adding a minimal set of custom logic on top.

How to contribute
Please note: This project uses Npm Workspaces. If you want to run all demos locally you need to get at least npm 7+ and install all dependencies by executing npm install.
Lion Web Components are only as good as its contributions.
Read our contribution guide and feel free to enhance/improve Lion. We keep feature requests closed while we're not working on them.
Site deployment
We use GitHub Pages to host our static website. Collaborators with push permission to the repository branch gh-pages can trigger a deploy by simply running:
