@stencil/core is a compiler for building efficient and reusable web components. It enables developers to create custom elements that can be used across different frameworks and libraries. Stencil uses a virtual DOM to efficiently update the UI and provides a simple API for defining components with encapsulated styles and logic.
Compared to other web component libraries like Polymer or LitElement, Stencil offers better performance and flexibility due to its compiler-based approach. It allows for server-side rendering, lazy loading, and automatic polyfill inclusion, making it a powerful tool for building scalable and fast web applications.
