Manifest

The component manifest describes which XTend modules a host may load.

What it covers

The component manifest is a static mapping from custom-element names to local ES modules. The loader accepts valid custom-element tags and .js or .mjs targets only; reserved bootstrap modules such as xtend-state remain explicit.

Public building blocks

• components/manifest.json is the shipped registry.
• xtend-loader.js validates names, URLs, protocols, and extensions.
• xtend-loader.d.ts describes manifests, diagnostics, and boot results.

Recommended workflow

A minimal manifest contains relative paths controlled by the host:

{
  "x-button": "./xbutton.js",
  "x-status": "./xstatus.js"
}

Load it with data-manifest="/components/manifest.json". An unknown tag remains undefined; a forbidden URL produces an import or manifest diagnostic rather than a remote fallback.
