Make Web Development Fun Again, with Web Components
summary
Penn State demonstrates a workflow that generates a component library from a single CLI, scaffolds a mono-repo, and publishes to npm with Lerna and yarn; the pipeline produces compiled bundles via polymer build and already outputs 161 components. The tool handles Polymer, LitElement, Skate, SlimJS or vanilla elements, wires assets into HAX/hacks for a WYSIWYG experience, and integrates with Drupal sites (including supports Drupal 7 8 Backdrop), showing live creation, versioned publishing, and working site embeds.
