Show HN: Transcrypt Python to JavaScript compiler can now generate native JavaScript components

Starting with Transcrypt v3.6.101 it is now possible to create native JavaScript component frameworks using the Transcrypt Python to JavaScript compiler. This makes it possible to write compact, fast JavaScript components for the browser in Python.

The project can be found at:

https://github.com/qquick/Transcrypt

Components can be freely mixed on a page without requiring recompilation. A developer doesn't need Transcrypt or any knowledge of it to use such a framework.

Each page has one unit that contains the Transcrypt runtime and, if needed, any central facilities. It is compiled with the -u .run switch. In addition each page can hold as many separate components as needed. Compile these with the -u .com switch.

A loader is generated, accepting a list of components. By varying this list, each page can have its own subset of components, without the need to recompile. The generated JavaScript code for components can be very small, typically a few hundred bytes. The runtime and central facilities are included in the page only once.
