About
Lit is a lightweight JavaScript library (~5 KB) for building web components on top of the Web Components standards. It adds reactivity, declarative templates, and scoped styles to reduce boilerplate while remaining interoperable with any framework or none at all. Lit components are native custom elements that work anywhere HTML is used.
Problem
Building reusable, framework-agnostic UI components with native browser APIs requires too much boilerplate and lacks reactivity.
For
frontend developers building shareable components, design systems, or web apps
How it works
Lit extends the native Web Components standards with reactive properties, declarative tagged-template HTML rendering, and Shadow DOM scoped styles in a ~5 KB package.
