Component is a vertically integrated frontend package manager and build tool for modular web applications, handling HTML, JS, CSS, images, and fonts in one workflow. It is officially deprecated and no longer maintained.

Use cases

  • manage frontend packages from git repositories
  • build modular web applications with bundled js css and assets
  • replace npm plus browserify plus grunt with one tool
  • publish and consume reusable browser components
  • search a registry of frontend components

When to choose

  • maintaining a legacy codebase already using component.
  • studying historical frontend tooling design

When to avoid

  • starting any new frontend project
  • you need maintained tooling - use webpack, browserify, or modern bundlers
  • you rely on npm ecosystem packages
