Lion Web Components are still in an early alpha stage; they should not be considered production ready yet.
The goal of our pilot phase is to gather feedback from a private group of users. Therefore, during this phase, we kindly ask you to:
- not publicly promote or link us yet: (no tweets, blog posts or other forms of communication about Lion Web Components)
- not publicly promote or link products derived from/based on Lion Web Components
As soon as Pilot Phase ends we will let you know (feel free to subscribe to this issue ing-bank#1)
Lion web components is a set of highly performant, accessible and flexible Web Components. They provide an unopinionated, white label layer that can be extended to your own layer of components.
We do have a live Storybook which shows all our components.

Lion Web Components aims to be future proof and use well-supported proven technology. The stack we have chosen should reflect this.
- lit-html and lit-element

- prettier
- Storybook
- ES modules
- Lots and lots of tests
We know from experience that making high quality, accessible UI components is hard and time consuming: it takes many iterations, a lot of development time and a lot of testing to get a generic component that works in every context, supports many edge cases and is accessible in all relevant screen readers.
Lion aims to do the heavy lifting for you. This means you only have to apply your own Design System: by delivering styles, configuring components and adding a minimal set of custom logic on top.
Lion Web Components are only as good as its contributions. Read our contribution guide and feel free to enhance/improve our product.
Feel free to create a github issue for any feedback or questions you might have. You can also find us on the Polymer slack in the #lion channel.
