## Features
The time has come for vanilla Web tech. 🎉
✅ Create web apps with vanilla custom elements<br>
✅ Write real .HTML files<br>
✅ Have no frameworks or reactivity libraries on the browser<br>
✅ Use server-side rendering<br>
✅ Deploy anywhere<br>
## 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. `./src/api/`**
- file-based routing for REST API endpoints
- e.g., `./src/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
```js
import defineConfig from './packages/define-config'
export default defineConfig({
components: 'js',
})
```
## More info
This framework is a result of [an exploration](https://social.ayco.io/@ayo/111195315785886977) for using [**Nitro**](https://nitro.unjs.io) and vanilla JS custom elements using a minimal [**Web Component Base**](https://WebComponent.io) class.
**Nitro** is the same production-grade web server powering [**Nuxt**](https://nuxt.com/)
