🤷‍♂️ zero-dependency, 🤏 tiny JS base class for creating reactive [custom elements](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Components/Using_custom_elements) easily ✨

![counter example code snippet](https://git.sr.ht/~ayoayco/wcb/blob/main/assets/IMG_0682.png)

When you extend the `WebComponent` class for your component, you only have to define the `template` and `properties`. Any change in any property value will automatically cause just the component UI to render.

The result is a reactive UI on property changes.

## Inspirations and thanks

1. [htm](https://github.com/developit/htm) - I use it for the `html` function for tagged templates, and take a lot of inspiration in building the rendering implementation. It is highly likely that I will go for what Preact is doing... but we'll see.

1. [fast](https://github.com/microsoft/fast) - When I found that Microsoft has their own base class I thought it was super cool!

1. [lit](https://github.com/lit/lit) - `lit-html` continues to amaze me and I worked to make `wcb` generic so I (and others) can continue to use it
