This Astro integration enables server-side rendering and client-side hydration for your Lit custom elements.
Installation
Section titled InstallationThere are two ways to add integrations to your project. Let’s try the most convenient option first!
astro add
command
Section titled astro add commandAstro includes a CLI tool for adding first party integrations: astro add
. This command will:
- (Optionally) Install all necessary dependencies and peer dependencies
- (Also optionally) Update your
astro.config.*
file to apply this integration
To install @astrojs/lit
, run the following from your project directory and follow the prompts:
If you run into any issues, feel free to report them to us on GitHub and try the manual installation steps below.
Install dependencies manually
Section titled Install dependencies manuallyFirst, install the @astrojs/lit
integration like so:
Most package managers will install associated peer dependencies as well. Still, if you see a “Cannot find package ‘lit’” (or similar) warning when you start up Astro, you’ll need to install lit
and @webcomponents/template-shadowroot
:
Now, apply this integration to your astro.config.*
file using the integrations
property:
Getting started
Section titled Getting startedTo use your first Lit component in Astro, head to our UI framework documentation. This explains:
- 📦 how framework components are loaded,
- 💧 client-side hydration options, and
- 🤝 opportunities to mix and nest frameworks together
Writing and importing a Lit component in Astro looks like this:
Now, the component is ready to be imported via the Astro frontmatter:
Note that Lit requires browser globals such as
HTMLElement
andcustomElements
to be present. For this reason the Lit renderer shims the server with these globals so Lit can run. You might run into libraries that work incorrectly because of this.
Polyfills & Hydration
Section titled Polyfills & HydrationThe renderer automatically handles adding appropriate polyfills for support in browsers that don’t have Declarative Shadow DOM. The polyfill is about 1.5kB. If the browser does support Declarative Shadow DOM then less than 250 bytes are loaded (to feature detect support).
Hydration is also handled automatically. You can use the same hydration directives such as client:load
, client:idle
and client:visible
as you can with other libraries that Astro supports.
The above will only load the element’s JavaScript when the user has scrolled it into view. Since it is server rendered they will not see any jank; it will load and hydrate transparently.

Common issues are listed below:
Browser globals
Section titled Browser globalsThe Lit integration’s SSR works by adding a few browser global properties to the global environment. Some of the properties it adds includes window
, document
, and location
.
These globals can interfere with other libraries that might use the existence of these variables to detect that they are running in the browser, when they are actually running in the server. This can cause bugs with these libraries.
Because of this, the Lit integration might not be compatible with these types of libraries. One thing that can help is changing the order of integrations when Lit is interfering with other integrations:
The correct order might be different depending on the underlying cause of the problem. This is not guaranteed to fix every issue however, and some libraries cannot be used if you are using the Lit integration because of this.
Strict package managers
Section titled Strict package managersWhen using a strict package manager like pnpm
, you may get an error such as ReferenceError: module is not defined
when running your site. To fix this, hoist Lit dependencies with an .npmrc
file:
Limitations
Section titled LimitationsThe Lit integration is powered by @lit-labs/ssr
which has some limitations. See their limitations documentation to learn more.
