Here's a thing which tries to do that - https://github.com/codemix/htmling/

Thanks, are they able to render custom elements that have shadow DOM, including the styles?
no, it's a way to share the same templating syntax on the client and server but isn't a full server side rendering solution. It's pretty fast though, just about the fastest templating engine out there last time I checked.
Using the CLI, can templates import other html bits (classic header/content/footer for example) ?
yes, you can do something like `HTMLing.registerElement('foo-bar', {})` and then when you use `<foo-bar />` in another template it will render it. I should note that I'm not maintaining this library very well because I've mostly switched to React, but it does work.
