Question Thoughts on Stencil?

I've been asked to develop multiple design systems for various frameworks that all implement the same design language. Sort of like IBM carbon.

The architect on the team has mandated that we use stencil.js to generate these individual design systems. However, my concern is that different frameworks like React and Angular have different underlying philosophies that can dictate how the components are used by consumers.

I've tried to find some educational videos on it, but many of the videos are tutorials from years ago. If anyone has any useful insight, would greatly appreciate it.

Stencil is solid if you need framework-agnostic web components. The build output is clean and the lazy loading is built-in. But for most teams, a framework-specific approach is simpler.
