[Solid](https://www.solidjs.com/) is a JavaScript framework for making interactive web applications.

Solid offers very similar syntax to [React](https://react.dev/), with strong focus on [reactivity](https://www.solidjs.com/guides/reactivity) using signals. Solid supports templating in 3 forms [JSX](./jsx.html.md), Tagged Template Literals and Solid's HyperScript variant, although JSX is the predominate form. Solid also supports [TypeScript](./typescript.html.md).

## Demo

<LiveCodes template="solid" height="400px"></LiveCodes>

## Usage

For usage, see documentation for [JSX](./jsx.html.md) and [TypeScript](./typescript.html.md) support in LiveCodes.

    "disableAutoRender": true
  }
}
