Dioxus v0.1.0

Welcome to the first iteration of the Dioxus Virtual DOM! This release brings support for:

• Web via WASM
• Desktop via webview integration
• Server-rendering with custom Display Impl
• Liveview (experimental)
• Mobile (experimental)
• State management

• Build CLI

  Project: Initial VDOM support (TBD)

  Get the initial VDom + Event System + Patching + Diffing + Component framework up and running Get a demo working using just the web

• x Migrate virtual node into new VNode type

• x Arena allocate VNodes

• x Allow VNodes to borrow arena contents

• x Introduce the VDOM and patch API for 3rd party renderers

• x Implement lifecycle

• x Implement an event system

• x Implement child nodes, scope creation

• Implement dirty tagging and compression

Project: QOL

Make it easier to write components

• x Tweak event syntax to not be dependent on wasm32 target (just return regular closures which get boxed/alloced)
• x Tweak component syntax to accept a new custom element
• Allow components to specify their props as function args (not going to do)

Project: Hooks + Context + Subscriptions (TBD)

Implement the foundations for state management

• Implement context object
• Implement use_state (rewrite to use the use_reducer api like rei)
• Implement use_ref
• Implement use_context (only the API, not the state management solution)
• Implement use_reducer (WIP)

Project: String Render (TBD)

Implement a light-weight string renderer with basic caching

• x Make VText nodes automatically capture and format IE allow "Text is {blah}"
• x Implement stateful 3rd party string renderer

Project: Web_sys renderer (TBD)

• WebSys edit interpreter
• Event system using async channels
• Implement conversion of all event types into synthetic events

Project: Web-View 🤲 🍨

Proof of concept: stream render edits from server to client

• Prove that the diffing and patching framework can support patch streaming

Project: Examples

Get all the examples

• Tide example with templating

Project: State management

Get some global state management installed with the hooks + context API

Project: Concurrency (TBD)

Ensure the concurrency model works well, play with lifetimes to check if it can be multithreaded + halted ?

Project: Mobile exploration

Project: Live-View 🤲 🍨

Combine the server and client into a single file :)

Project: Sanitization (TBD)

Improve code health

• Clippy sanity for html macro
• Error sanitization

Outstanding todos:

anything missed so far

• dirty tagging, compression
• fragments
• make ssr follow HTML spec
• code health
• miri tests
• todo mvc
• fix
• node refs (postpone for future release?)
• styling built-in (future release?)
• key handler?
• FC macro
• Documentation overhaul
• Website
• keys on components
• fix keys on elements
• all synthetic events filed out
• doublecheck event targets and stuff
