MagicBell In-App

[!IMPORTANT] This is an early release, docs are lacking. Please look at @magicbell/magicbell-react or @magicbell/embeddable if you're looking for something stable.

Setup

Install dependencies:

npm i

Build

This sample uses the TypeScript compiler to produce JavaScript that runs in modern browsers.

To build the JavaScript version of your component:

npm run build

To watch files and rebuild when the files are modified, run the following command in a separate shell:

npm run build:watch

Both the TypeScript compiler and lit-analyzer are configured to be very strict. You may want to change tsconfig.json to make them less strict.

Testing

This sample uses modern-web.dev's @web/test-runner for testing. See the modern-web.dev testing documentation for more information.

Tests can be run with the test script, which will run your tests against Lit's development mode (with more verbose errors) as well as against Lit's production mode:

npm test

For local testing during development, the test:dev:watch command will run your tests in Lit's development mode (with verbose errors) on every change to your source files:

npm test:watch

Alternatively the test:prod and test:prod:watch commands will run your tests in Lit's production mode.

Dev Server

This sample uses modern-web.dev's @web/dev-server for previewing the project without additional build steps. Web Dev Server handles resolving Node-style "bare" import specifiers, which aren't supported in browsers. It also automatically transpiles JavaScript and adds polyfills to support older browsers. See modern-web.dev's Web Dev Server documentation for more information.

To run the dev server and open the project in a new browser tab:

npm run serve

There is a development HTML file located at /dev/index.html that you can view at http://localhost:8000/dev/index.html. Note that this command will serve your code using Lit's development mode (with more verbose errors). To serve your code against Lit's production mode, use npm run serve:prod.

Editing

If you use VS Code, we highly recommend the lit-plugin extension, which enables some extremely useful features for lit-html templates:

• Syntax highlighting
• Type-checking
• Code completion
• Hover-over docs
• Jump to definition
• Linting
• Quick Fixes

The project is setup to recommend lit-plugin to VS Code users if they don't already have it installed.

Linting

Linting of TypeScript files is provided by Biome and TypeScript. In addition, lit-analyzer is used to type-check and lint lit-html templates with the same engine and rules as lit-plugin.

To lint the project run:

npm run lint

Bundling and minification

Components are published as unoptimized JavaScript modules and performing build-time optimizations should happen at the application level. This gives build tools the best chance to deduplicate code, remove dead code, and so on.

Please check the Publishing best practices for information on publishing reusable Web Components, and Build for production for building application projects that include LitElement components, on the Lit site.
