SurveyJS
Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
-
webpack
A bundler for javascript and friends. Packs many modules into a few bundled assets. Code Splitting allows for loading parts of the application on demand. Through "loaders", modules can be CommonJs, AMD, ES6 modules, CSS, Images, JSON, Coffeescript, LESS, ... and your custom stuff.
-
stencil
A toolchain for building scalable, enterprise-ready component systems on top of TypeScript and Web Component standards. Stencil components can be distributed natively to React, Angular, Vue, and traditional web developers from a single, framework-agnostic codebase.
-
sortablejs
Reorderable drag-and-drop lists for modern browsers and touch devices. No jQuery or framework required.
-
InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
In addition to the above mentioned libraries, I have also used two of my own npm libraries called styled-web-components and crayons-extensions. Let's have a brief look at them.
crayons-extensions is a small collection of layout components built as an extension for Crayons components. It will help you to construct complex UI layouts with simple component primitives like fw-flex, fw-grid, etc.,
It is using Webpack for bundling, Redux and Immer for application state management.
It uses other utility libraries like Lodash, JSZip and SortableJS. JSZip is used to package the user interface markup into HTML files and other required JavaScript files for a Marketplace App boilerplate in a compressed format and download them from the browser.
The app is built using vanilla Web Components without using any component publishing libraries like Stencil, Lit and so on. The reason being I met with some roadblocks in building a drag-n-drop editor using these libraries. Actually the Crayons Team itself is using Stencil to build the Crayons components using TypeScript and React-like component semantics and finally publish them as platform native Web components and React wrappers for the same. You can find out more about this in the Stencil documentation.

The original idea and inspiration for the Crayons Playground came from the full-featured visual editor and code generator for React using Chakra UI called openchakra. All the underlying architecture, code organization and design & communication patterns are borrowed from openchakra. The only difference is Crayons Playground doesn't make use of any JavaScript framework whereas openchakra is completely built using React.
