lemonade 🍋
Functional lightweight toolbox for the web
lemonade-* are a bunch of tools made to build websites with a strong focus on performance. They are all made following few principes:
- Avoid dependencies as much as possible
- Keep the package size as low as possible
- Support functions and classes
- Make it work with dynamic imports
- Write for the future, not the past
Tools
So far, lemonade is made of:
- lemonade-events: Minimal event system 👀
- lemonade-helpers: Utility functions for browser and dom events ⚙️
- lemonade-spring: Simple spring animations 🌱
- lemonade-math: Math utility functions 🧮
- lemonade-component: (alpha) Minimal component library 🏷
- lemonade-router: (beta) Minimal routing library 🧭
Release roadmap
lemonade-tween: A lightweight animation engine with an API similar togsaplemonade-loader: A WebWorker file loader with built-in cache
Motivation
Over the last years, I built a set of tools embracing classes and inheritage which grew on verbosity and complexity. For the last year, I tried to apply a more composable approach to my code and I found myself writing more reusable, less verbose and complicated code. I also got sick of having a hundred of packages I didn't know and care about in my node_modules folder so this is my attempt to avoid that.
Why lemonade ?
Because it's fresh!
