Lion

Overview

Lion represents an innovative collection of Web Components designed to bring high performance, accessibility, and flexibility to web development. By offering an unopinionated, white-label foundation, Lion empowers developers to create customized designs without restricting styling options. This makes it an attractive choice for teams and individuals looking to integrate efficient and user-friendly components into their applications.

With a focus on modern coding practices, Lion’s components are built as pure ES modules, ensuring that developers can easily extend their functionalities. The emphasis on compliance with accessibility standards further enhances the usability of these components, making them a practical choice for creating inclusive web applications.

Features

• High Performance: Lion components are optimized for fast loading and smooth interactions across all major browsers, minimizing dependency overhead.
• Accessibility Compliance: Designed to meet WCAG 2.2 AA standards, these components prioritize accessibility, ensuring that all users have an equal experience.
• Flexible Solutions: The framework allows developers to adopt and customize components through Web Components and JavaScript classes tailored to meet specific needs.
• Modern Code Distribution: Lion components are distributed as pure ES modules, allowing for straightforward integration and decreased complexity in incorporating new functionalities.
• Functional Stylings: The initial styling for demos is intentionally simple, encouraging developers to build upon and create their own unique designs without conflicts.
• Extensibility: The primary use case for Lion is to easily extend component classes, offering a robust foundation for developing bespoke components within your design system.
• Developer-Friendly APIs: Various “systems” within Lion, such as localize and overlays, provide JavaScript APIs for enhanced interactivity and features.
