With React (it seems) finally moving to support everything needed (they are the last major framework lagging behind substantially), too, we might be moving to a world post-framework discussions, and real interoperability on a technical level. I think Jake Lazaroff motivates this beautifully with his articles “Web Components Eliminate JavaScript Framework Lock-in” and “The Web Component Success Story”.

Seems it doesn’t work in React, everything is sent as a string. There was a link in the article that shows how well web components work with various frameworks.

You can see how React fares for itself.

React supports Web Components, just some quirks to be aware of: https://custom-elements-everywhere.com/

You could wrap each component as a Web Component and then import them for each repo. Web Components are not native to frameworks, so the support for them could vary when passing props. Or you could wrap the render method of each framework as a function and then use the receiving frameworks life cycle method and inject it onto the page. If you use frameworks like Svelte or Lit that are "Web Component" based, then you'd need to see if the receiving framework supports Web Components inorder to import the seamlessly.

Check compatibility of React with web components: https://custom-elements-everywhere.com/ It's not directly because of jsx, but because of synthetic "let's make it up" approach of React.

I have been using this approach recently as well, working great thus far ! Some things to consider though: - I would recommend checking if the other frameworks you intend to use have good web components support (looking at you, react): https://custom-elements-everywhere.com/ - There are ways to do so without web components, but I wouldn't recommend them unless your framework has poor web components support.

VueJS actually fails some advanced tests for WebComponents: https://custom-elements-everywhere.com/

So, VueJS docs are actually incorrect when they say it scores 100%. The actual score is 90%.

I had reported this 8 months ago.

Since Web Components are supported natively by browsers, they can be used in any libraries and frameworks either directly or with configurations. https://custom-elements-everywhere.com/ is a great site to check custom elements support status by different libraries and frameworks.

Builder.io Mitosis -

In this case, we combined a fine-tuned LLM, a custom compiler that we wrote, and a custom-trained model.

The heart of Visual Copilot lies in its AI models and a specialized compiler. The initial model, trained with over 2 million data points, transforms flat design structures into code hierarchies. Our open-source compiler, Mitosis, takes this structured hierarchy and compiles it into code. In the final pass, a finely tuned Large Language Model (LLM) refines the code to match your specific framework and styling preferences. This multi-stage process ensures that the generated code is high-quality and tailored to meet the requirements of your project.

Mitosis (https://github.com/BuilderIO/mitosis) is a fantastic project, but is still in its early stages, and in need of some build tooling. It allows you to "write once, run everywhere" in the sense that you can write a UI component and have it compiled to a React component for use in a React project, a Svelte component for use in a Svelte project, and so on. It does not, however, support bundling.

create-multi-lib (run like so `npx create-multi-lib ) is my attempt to contribute a much needed bundling-layer on top of Mitosis.

It also comes with E2E testing included, and your resulting packages include type-declarations.

Depending on your needs, check out Mitosis that let you write components and compile them to svelte, angular, react. https://github.com/BuilderIO/mitosis

Saying that, you could check-out Mitosis.

I see you was inspired by https://github.com/BuilderIO/mitosis was there no way to extend there AST?

I discovered https://github.com/BuilderIO/mitosis, and it has changed my front-end development workflow with the ability to create one development and export and test metrics on multiple front-ends delivering the best MVP possible.
