LitElement 3.0
A simple base class for creating fast, lightweight web components.
LitElement is the base class that powers the Lit library for building fast web components. Most users should import LitElement from the lit package rather than installing and importing from the lit-element package directly.
About this release
This is a pre-release of Lit 3.0, the next major version of Lit.
Lit 3.0 has very few breaking changes from Lit 2.0:
- Drops support for IE11
- Published as ES2021
- Removes a couple of deprecated Lit 1.x APIs
Lit 3.0 should require no changes to upgrade from Lit 2.0 for the vast majority of users. Once the full release is published, most apps and libraries will be able to extend their npm version ranges to include both 2.x and 3.x, like "^2.7.0 || ^3.0.0".
Lit 2.x and 3.0 are interoperable: templates, base classes, directives, decorators, etc., from one version of Lit will work with those from another.
