dotElement

🚀 dotElement is a lightweight utility similar to React.createElement, but for vanilla JavaScript. It allows you to create and manage DOM elements efficiently with a JSX-like approach.

🌟 Features

• 🏗 JSX-like API for creating DOM elements.
• 🎨 Styling Support: Apply styles using className or an inline style object (like: {backgroundColor: "red"}).
• 🎭 Event Listeners: Add event handlers just like in React (onClick, onChange, etc.).
• 🏎 Lightweight & fast.
• 🛠 Fully TypeScript-supported.

📦 Installation

Install via npm or pnpm:

npm install dotElement

Or using pnpm:

pnpm add dotElement

🚀 Usage

Basic Example

import { createElement } from "dotElement";

document.body.appendChild(
  createElement("button", {
    className: "btn-primary",
    style: { backgroundColor: "blue", color: "white", padding: "10px" },
    onClick: () => alert("Button Clicked!"),
  }, "Click Me!")
);

Nested Elements Example

const container = createElement("div", { className: "container" },
  createElement("h1", {}, "Hello, dotElement!"),
  createElement("p", {}, "This is a lightweight JSX alternative for vanilla JS."),
  createElement("button", {
    onClick: () => alert("Clicked!"),
    style: { padding: "10px", backgroundColor: "green", color: "white" }
  }, "Click Me")
);

document.body.appendChild(container);
