Pre-requisites

Please make sure that you have the following dependencies installed and setup correctly:-

• Node.js >= 10.18.1
• NPM >= 6.13.4

Installation

NPM

First, install generator-lit-element-next using NPM (we assume you have pre-installed Node.js).

# Install globally with NPM
$ npm install -g yo generator-lit-element-next

Then generate your new project:

# Create a new directory if you haven't already.
# Then change to that new directory.
$ mkdir my-app && cd my-app

# Init
$ yo lit-element-next

NPX

NPX comes in a package as of Node.js v8.9.0. This means that you can run any CLI written in Node.js without globally installing it.

# Create a new directory if you haven't already.
# Then change to that new directory.
$ mkdir my-app && cd my-app

# Install packages with NPX and execute the CLI with this one-liner
$ npx -p yo -p generator-lit-element-next -- yo lit-element-next

Testing

No option on which testing library/ framework to use to test Web Components and you are feel free to bring your own testing library or framework. But, here are a few to recommend if you haven't already had one:

1. @open-wc/testing
2. webdriverio
3. playwright
