Ilha is a lightweight, reactive UI library built on top of Lit, designed for building modern web applications with ease. It aims to provide the simplicity and mental model of SvelteKit but without the need for a compiler or complex tooling.
Key Features:
- Reactivity: Built-in reactivity similar to Svelte.
- Isolation: Islands (components) are isolated, making them easy to manage and compose.
- Type Safety: Fully typed with TypeScript out-of-the-box.
- Lightweight: Minimal dependencies and a small footprint.
- SSR Support: Seamless integration with server-side rendering.
