Course Description:

In this course, we will explore the power of native web component technology and how it can be harnessed to create stunning and functional web pages. 🚀 Our journey begins with the design phase, where we'll use the intuitive interface of Figma to craft beautiful components for a Twitter-like home page from scratch. Here's what you can expect in this exciting learning adventure:

• Designing with Figma:

  • 🎨 Create Beautiful Web Components: We'll start by designing every aspect of our Twitter UI in Figma, ensuring that the design is not only visually appealing but also responsive and user-friendly.
  • 🧩 Building a Design System: By creating a comprehensive design system, we'll establish reusable color, typography, and shadow styles that will streamline our design process and maintain consistency across our project.
  • 🔁 Transferring Figma Styles to CSS Variables: We'll learn how to translate the Figma styles into CSS variables, ensuring a smooth transition from design to front-end code.

• Developing with Lit JS:

  • 👨‍💻 Learn Lit JS for Native Components: We'll dive into using Lit JS to develop native shareable components, making our web development process more efficient and future-proof.
  • 📚 Encapsulating HTML & CSS with JavaScript Classes: By encapsulating our HTML and CSS within JavaScript classes using Lit JS, we'll create simple yet powerful web components that are customizable and maintainable.
  • ✨ Pure Vanilla JavaScript for Customizable Components: We'll use pure vanilla JavaScript to craft customizable components, ensuring that our CSS styles are scoped within each component for better performance and manageability.

• Front-End Development Best Practices:

  • 🔄 Code Reusability: We'll embrace the front-end development best practice of reusing code effectively by leveraging Lit JS, which is built on top of the native web component API.
  • 💪 Simplifying Development with Native Web Component API: By utilizing Lit JS and its reliance on the native web component API, we'll work in a simple yet powerful development environment, eliminating the need for complex Node Modules or JavaScript bundlers.
  • 🎉 Efficient Development Environment: With Lit JS, we'll be able to develop our components without the overhead of transpiling or bundling our syntax, making the process more straightforward and focused on creating great web experiences.
