dioxus-mirror/examples/dog_app.rs

//! This example demonstrates a simple app that fetches a list of dog breeds and displays a random dog.
//!
//! The app uses the `use_signal` and `use_resource` hooks to manage state and fetch data from the Dog API.
//! `use_resource` is basically an async version of use_memo - it will track dependencies between .await points
//! and then restart the future if any of the dependencies change.
//!
//! You should generally throttle requests to an API - either client side or server side. This example doesn't do that
//! since it's unlikely the user will rapidly cause new fetches, but it's something to keep in mind.
