I'm excited to announce the release of KoiCom, a library designed for creating front-end interfaces using Web Components with a standardized lifecycle. The focus is on simplicity, transparency, and efficiency—perfect for headless applications or projects that need a streamlined workflow.

Key Features
Component-Centric Design: KoiCom uses Web Components with a standardized lifecycle to simplify development and testing.
Client-Side Execution: Interfaces built with KoiCom run entirely in the browser, interacting with servers only for data exchange.
Framework-Free: No unnecessary abstractions—just functional, transparent, and simple code.
Workflow Optimization: Enhances productivity without dictating component aesthetics, leaving styling to designers or frameworks like Bootstrap.

Why I Built KoiCom
I was inspired by the simplicity of the VCL library, which, despite its criticisms, excels at providing straightforward functionality for data manipulation. I wanted to build something similar but with a more modern foundation. Web Components were the perfect choice: widely supported, yet often underutilized.

KoiCom addresses a key gap in existing tools: streamlined workflows without sacrificing clarity or independence from third-party frameworks.

Resources
📖 Documentation
💻 GitHub Repository

KoiCom is lightweight, easy to integrate, and offers a solid foundation for front-end development without overcomplicating things. I'd love to hear your feedback or see how you use KoiCom in your projects!
