Packages

User-Facing

These packages are imported and used by Glimmer developers directly.

• @glimmer/application - user-friendly wrapper around the Glimmer VM environment

• @glimmer/web-component - addon for mounting Glimmer components as Web Components
• @glimmer/application-test-helpers - helpers for testing Glimmer components

Internals

These packages are used internally by Glimmer but may be useful for more advanced users.

• @glimmer/di - lightweight dependency injection library used by @glimmer/application
• @glimmer/resolver - resolver used by @glimmer/application to look up component modules
