Examples

Most of these examples are run through webview so you don't need the Dioxus CLI installed to preview the functionality.

These examples are fully-fledged micro apps. They can be ran with the cargo run --example XYZ

Example	What it does	Status
The basics	A few basic examples to preview Dioxus	🛠
fine grained reactivity	Escape diffing by writing values directly	🛠
Global State Management	Share state between components	🛠
[Virtual Refs]()	Cross-platform imperative elements	🛠
Inline Styles	Define styles for elements inline	🛠
Conditional Rendering	Hide/Show elements using conditionals	✅

These examples are not necessarily meant to be run, but rather serve as a reference for the given functionality.

Show me some examples!

In our collection of examples, guides, and tutorials, we have:

• The book (an introductory course)
• The guide (an in-depth analysis of everything in Dioxus)
• The reference (a collection of examples with heavy documentation)
• The general examples
• The platform-specific examples (web, ssr, desktop, mobile, server)

Here's what a few common tasks look like in Dioxus:

Nested components with children and internal state:

fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element {
  cx.render(rsx!( Toggle { "Toggle me" } ))
}

#[derive(PartialEq, Props)]
struct ToggleProps { children: Element }

fn Toggle(cx: Scope<ToggleProps>) -> Element {
  let mut toggled = use_state(&cx, || false);
  cx.render(rsx!{
    div {
      &cx.props.children
      button { onclick: move |_| toggled.set(true),
        toggled.and_then(|| "On").or_else(|| "Off")
      }
    }
  })
}

Controlled inputs:

fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element {
  let value = use_state(&cx, String::new);
  cx.render(rsx!(
    input {
      "type": "text",
      value: "{value}",
      oninput: move |evt| value.set(evt.value.clone())
    }
  ))
}

Lists and Conditional rendering:

fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element {
  let list = (0..10).map(|i| {
    rsx!(li { key: "{i}", "Value: {i}" })
  });

  let title = match list.len() {
    0 => rsx!("Not enough"),
    _ => rsx!("Plenty!"),
  };

  if should_show {
    cx.render(rsx!(
      title,
      ul { list }
    ))
  } else {
    None
  }
}

Tiny components:

static App: Component = |cx| rsx!(cx, div {"hello world!"});

Borrowed prop contents:

fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element {
  let name = use_state(&cx, || String::from("example"));
  rsx!(cx, Child { title: name.as_str() })
}

#[derive(Props)]
struct ChildProps<'a> { title: &'a str }

fn Child(cx: Scope<ChildProps>) -> Element {
  rsx!(cx, "Hello {cx.props.title}")
}

Global State

struct GlobalState { name: String }

fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element {
  use_provide_shared_state(cx, || GlobalState { name: String::from("Toby") })
  rsx!(cx, Leaf {})
}

fn Leaf(cx: Scope) -> Element {
  let state = use_consume_shared_state::<GlobalState>(cx)?;
  rsx!(cx, "Hello {state.name}")
}

Router (inspired by Yew-Router)

#[derive(PartialEq, Clone,  Hash, Eq, Routable)]
enum Route {
  #[at("/")]
  Home,
  #[at("/post/{id}")]
  Post(id)
}

fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element {
  let route = use_router(cx, Route::parse);
  cx.render(rsx!(div {
    match route {
      Route::Home => rsx!( Home {} ),
      Route::Post(id) => rsx!( Post { id: id })
    }
  }))
}

Suspense

fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element {
  let doggo = use_suspense(cx,
    || async { reqwest::get("https://dog.ceo/api/breeds/image/random").await.unwrap().json::<Response>().await.unwrap() },
    |response| cx.render(rsx!( img { src: "{response.message}" }))
  );

  cx.render(rsx!{
    div {
      "One doggo coming right up:",
      doggo
    }
  })
}
