createTemplateElement

[stevenvachon]

const createTemplateElement = htmlString => {
    const element = document.createElement("template");
    element.innerHTML = htmlString;
    return element;
};

import {createTemplateElement as html} from 'webcomponent';

const template = html`
    <style>
        :host {
            display: block;
        }
    </style>
    <slot></slot>
`;

Notice the HTML syntax highlighting (available in Atom and GitHub, among others) on the template literal.

Thanks, this is a nice idea. Did you open it as an Issue rather than a Pull Request in order to get feedback first?

[stevenvachon]

This feature request is within a created issue, not a pull request. I've released this idea as a package that this project can depend on.

[tdumitrescu]

OK, well if there's already a separate package for it then it seems like there's not much point in proxying it through this library too?

[stevenvachon]

I think it's still very useful. This library is more of a toolbox than a tool.
