SM Components

Getting Started

Components

Total components

Overview

Component-based design is the cornerstone of the modern UI development process. With rise of more UI frameworks every day, the web platform has a serious issue of fragmentation and portability.

Web components to the rescue! This is the collection of web components (WC here forward) that we use at RanchiMall, especially since we are a framework-less development environment so this was a logical choice.

Features

  • Native and Cross framework support
  • Encapsulated style and functionality
  • Easy styling
  • Adaptive scaling

Quick Start

  1. To start using these components, Select the ones you want to add to your project. You can un-check 'get minified' to get the readable code.
  2. Now you can download or copy the source code for selected components. You might get a warning while downloading like this file is not safe, please allow the download as this is caused when downloading files with '.js' extension. These components are 100% safe to use.
  3. Link the downloaded js before </body>
    
    <script src=".../components.js"></script>
    
    
Get minified Select all Clear all
Copy source code Download JS file
