// C) Load dynamically at runtime
import { loadOnDemand } from "custom-elements-collection";
await loadOnDemand(["ce-hero", "ce-kpi", "lesson-rule"]);Theming
All colors, spacing, and radii come from CSS custom properties named --ce-*. Ship the defaults and override anywhere:
<link rel="stylesheet"
href="https://unpkg.com/custom-elements-collection/dist/tokens/tokens.css" />:root {
--ce-color-primary: oklch(72% 0.17 250);
--ce-radius: 12px;
--ce-font-sans: "Inter", system-ui, sans-serif;
}Dark / light overrides are shipped as separate stylesheets:

A machine-readable manifest of every component is exported as COMPONENTS.
Design principles
- Light DOM by default. Components render into the page's DOM, so markdown, Mermaid diagrams, and Chart.js canvases work inside slots. Shadow DOM is opt-in per component where style isolation matters. See ADR-002.
- Theming via CSS custom properties. No per-component prop explosion. See ADR-003.
- Zero config on the consumer side. One
<script type="module">from a CDN gets you all 31 tags. - Type-safe. Full
.d.tsfor every component and the manifest.
Documentation
- Usage guide — plain HTML, bundlers, Vue / React / Svelte, theming, composition patterns, troubleshooting.
- Architecture — repo layout, component anatomy, build pipeline, theming model.
- ADRs — framework choice, Light DOM, theming, distribution modes.
