@stencil/core is a compiler for building efficient and reusable web components. It enables developers to create custom HTML elements with encapsulated functionality and styling, which can be used across different frameworks or standalone. Stencil leverages modern web standards like Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and ES Modules to ensure optimal performance and compatibility.
Compared to other web component libraries like Polymer or LitElement, Stencil offers better performance through its build-time optimizations and lazy-loading capabilities. It also provides a developer-friendly API and tooling for creating production-ready components.
