Question 1

How to integrate Omi components into a React app?

Accepted Answer

Import the Omi component as a custom element in React JSX and use event listeners for communication, as demonstrated in the cross-framework example with refs and useEffect.

Question 2

Omi vs Lit: which is better for Web Components?

Accepted Answer

Omi offers JSX and signal-driven reactivity similar to modern frameworks, while Lit uses template literals; choose Omi if you prefer JSX syntax and tighter integration with React/Vue ecosystems, but Lit has a larger community.

Question 3

Does Omi support TypeScript?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Omi has first-class TypeScript support, with examples in the README using TSX and type definitions, and starter kits for TypeScript projects.

Question 4

How to handle routing in Omi applications?

Accepted Answer

Omi includes omi-router for single-page applications, with starter kits like omi-starter-spa that set up routing, signals, and Tailwind CSS using Vite.

Question 5

What are the bundle size implications of using Omi?

Accepted Answer

Omi is designed to be tiny with minimal overhead, but actual size depends on usage; the core is lightweight, though adding features like router or forms increases it slightly.

Question 6

Can Omi components be used in server-side rendered pages?

Accepted Answer

While Omi focuses on client-side Web Components, SSR might require additional configuration and is not extensively documented, so it's less ideal for SSR-heavy projects.
