# Stencil

A library for building reusable, scalable component libraries using Web Components.

**Route:** surfaced by the Web Application and Frontend Hosting Platform lane's de-branded queries → competitor to vercel.com.

**Why it's on the map:** Stencil offers the same build-time component compilation and cross-framework distribution capability that Vercel’s AI SDK and frontend tooling also target for component delivery.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> a library for building reusable, scalable component libraries

> Generate small, blazing fast Web Components that run everywhere

> Build cross-framework component libraries on open web standards
