Getting started
Check out the documentation for the package you want to use:
- @viselect/vanilla (demo) - To be used with plain JavaScript or TypeScript.
- @viselect/preact (demo) - Preact wrapper.
- @viselect/react (demo) - React wrapper.

Browser support
This library will always have the previous year as its target. For 2021 for example the target will be ES2020.
It always provides both a UMD (.js) and .mjs version. If you want to support legacy browsers, please use the feature of your bundler to transpile dependencie. In case of
webpack and babel (give vite a try, it's awesome) you'll have to install corresponding plugins such
as babel-plugin-proposal-optional-chaining and include the dependency from node_modules which is normally
entirely excluded from being processed.
I do this to provide maximum flexibility and give those who target ESNext a chance to make full use of how this library is bundled. Everything else is just a matter of configuration :)
Is this library the right choice for me?
Viselect primarily focuses on being a high-performant engine to select elements with various boundaries, behaviours and modes in your browser. Viselect is to "full-blown libraries" what is popper.js to tippy.js - the core of your feature / of another library.
Development
Use the following commands to work on this locally (we use lerna to manage this):
npm run dev- Spawns a dev-server for all packages. Every framework-dependend package is bundled with the vanilla version.npm run build- Builds all packages in parallel.npm run lint:fix- Lints and fixes all errors in all packages.
For the development servers vite is used. It's superb, you should give it a try. To bundle it we use rollup (which is btw also used by vite behind the scenes) to have full control over how the bundle looks like.
Releasing a new version
This project is managed via lerna. To bump the version and publish a new one run the following commands:
lerna versionlerna publish from-package
