-- custom element constructor class files go here (only `.js` files for now)
-- all components are automatically registered using their file names (e.g., a `hello-world.js` component can be used as `<hello-world>` element)
-- the idea is, if it is a valid custom element constructor, just throw it in the `components` directory and it will work... vanilla, Lit, Stencil, or our own totally optional [Base Class](https://ayco.io/n/web-component-base) -- your choice!

 ## Setting up
 
 It's still very early in the project development and we have no packages published yet.
 
-You can, however, experience the framework by cloning the project and play with the example files in the [special directories](#special-directories).
