McFly

McFly is a no-framework framework
that assists in leveraging the web platform

Installation

Run the following to generate a McFly starter project:

npm create mcfly@latest

Features

The time has come for vanilla Web tech. 🎉

✅ Create web apps with vanilla custom elements
✅ Write real .HTML files
✅ Have no frameworks or reactivity libraries on the browser
✅ Use server-side rendering
✅ Deploy anywhere

Special directories

1. ./src/pages/

• file-based routing for .html files
• directly use custom elements & static fragments (no imports or registry maintenance needed)
• use <script server:setup> to define logic that runs on the server, which then gets stripped away

2. ./src/components/

• custom element constructor files (only .js files for now)
• all components are automatically registered using their file names; a hello-world.js component can be used as <hello-world>
• static .html fragments; a my-header.html fragment can be directly used as <my-header>

3. ./routes/api/

• file-based routing for REST API endpoints
• e.g., ./routes/api/users.ts can be accessed via http://<domain>/api/users
• TypeScript or JavaScript welcome!

McFly config

To tell McFly you want to use components, pass the mode (only "js" for now) to the components prop mcfly.config.ts

import defineConfig from "./packages/define-config";

export default defineConfig({
  components: "js",
});

More info

This framework is a result of an exploration for using Nitro and vanilla JS custom elements using a minimal Web Component Base class.

Nitro is the same production-grade web server powering Nuxt
