Shoemakers 🥾

Shoemakers, or "Shoelace developers," can use this documentation to learn how to build Shoelace from source. You will need Node >= 12.10.0 to build and run the project locally.

You don't need to do any of this to use Shoelace! This page is for people who want to contribute to the project, tinker with the source, or create a custom build of Shoelace.

If that's not what you're trying to do, the documentation website is where you want to be.

What are you using to build Shoelace?

Components are built with LitElement, a custom elements base class that provides an intuitive API and reactive data binding. The build is a custom script with bundling powered by esbuild.

Forking the Repo

Start by forking the repo on GitHub, then clone it locally and install dependencies.

git clone https://github.com/YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME/shoelace
cd shoelace
npm install

Developing

Once you've cloned the repo, run the following command.

npm start

This will spin up the Shoelace dev server. After the initial build, a browser will open automatically.

There is currently no hot module reloading (HMR), as browser's don't provide a way to reregister custom elements, but most changes to the source will reload the browser automatically. The exception is component metadata used by the docs, which is generated by TypeDoc. This tool takes a few seconds to run so, to prevent long reload delays, it only runs once at startup.

The documentation is powered by Docsify, which uses raw markdown files to generate pages. As such, no static files are built for the docs.

Building

To generate a production build, run the following command.

npm run build

Designing, developing, and supporting this library requires a lot of time, effort, and skill. I’d like to keep it open source so everyone can use it, but that doesn’t provide me with any income.

Therefore, if you’re using my software to make a profit, I respectfully ask that you help fund its development by becoming a sponsor. There are multiple tiers to choose from with benefits at every level, including prioritized support, bug fixes, feature requests, and advertising.
