• Tiny size (less than 10KB gzipped)

Usage

Anthesis can be used either as a standalone library or as a plugin for a bigger framework.

Standalone

To use Anthesis as a standalone library, simply include the latest version from a CDN:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/anthesis@latest/dist/anthesis.min.js"></script>

Then define your UI component using the anthesis function:

const { anthesis, useState } = Anthesis;

const Counter = () => {
  const [count, setCount] = useState(0);

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>Counter</h1>
      <button onClick={() => setCount(count - 1)}>-</button>
      <span>{count}</span>
      <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>+</button>
    </div>
  );
};

anthesis(Counter, document.getElementById('app'));

Integration

To use Anthesis as a plugin for a bigger framework, simply import it as a module:

import Anthesis from 'anthesis';

const { useState } = Anthesis;

const Counter = () => {
  const [count, setCount] = useState(0);

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>Counter</h1>
      <button onClick={() => setCount(count - 1)}>-</button>
      <span>{count}</span>
      <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>+</button>
    </div>
  );
};

export default Counter;

Then use it in your framework of choice:

import Counter from './Counter';

// React
const App = () => <Counter />;

// Vue
const App = {
  components: {
    Counter
  },
  template: '<counter />'
};
