Hey there! Just checked out Dim and gotta say, awesome job! It’s super cool to see functional web components in action, and your todo list app is both sleek and practical. Love how you laid out the project on GitHub too, really easy to follow.
I’m curious, what inspired you to create Dim in the first place? Also, any tips for someone new to web components? Keep up the great work, looking forward to following your updates!
as for tips for somone new to webcomponents, i think its good to take a look at resources online. i dont know enough to suggest any.
i found that after trying it myself, creating something with vanilla webcomponents was a bit of a pain (and the code looks ugly). so its only natural to lean towards something like Lit or Vue for larger projects.
personally, webcomponents seem cumbersome and thats why i wanted to see if Dim was possible. its an attempt to reduce the complexity.
thanks! im glad you like it :)
> what inspired you to create Dim in the first place?
working with Lit felt a bit like a step backwards when coming from React. the React syntax just seems more elegant to me so i wanted to see if i could do it with webcomponents.
im aiming to see if i can get something that looks and behaves like React, but works natively in a browser without the need to build or transpile. i think in theory it could work.
