GXI

Cross-Platform Native Widget based Component System in Rust

Using proc-macros, the gxi transpiler transpile a component tree into a stateful self-managed n-binary tree using observable sync/async state pattern, for maximum efficiency and lowest possible overhead, with close to no runtime cost. Inherently, eliminating the use of a virtual dom or a diffing algorithm. The component system is platform-agnostic, which allows the system to produce platform-dependent and independent components, merging them for code reuse and maintainability.

Platforms

• Web wasm32-unknown-unknown
• Desktop (GTK) Windows, Mac and Linux
• Platform Independent (Web and GTK)
• Android
• Ios

Examples

use gxi::{gxi, set_state, State, StrongNodeType, Text};

pub fn cat_fact() -> StrongNodeType {
    let cat_fact = State::new(String::new());

    let fetch_cat_fact = set_state!(
        async || {
            let resp = reqwest::get("https://catfact.ninja/fact?max_length=140")
                .await
                .unwrap();
            *(*cat_fact).borrow_mut() = resp.text().await.unwrap();
        },
        [cat_fact]
    );

    // pre fetch cat memes
    fetch_cat_fact();

    return gxi! {
        div [
            button ( on_click = move |_| fetch_cat_fact() ) [
                Text ( value = "fetch cat memes!" )
            ],
            p [
                Text ( value = &cat_fact[..])
            ],
        ]
    };
}
