Running an example from the /examples folder:

cargo run --example counter

Running clippy in all the workspace:

cargo clippy --workspace

Running rustfmt in all the workspace:

cargo +nightly fmt --all -- --error-on-unformatted --unstable-features

Architecture Overview

Freya is split in various crates, each with it's own meaning and purpose, here is the list sorted by their importance:

  • freya: Entrypoint to the library used by end users, mainly reexports the other crates and contains the launch methods.
  • renderer: GUI Renderer using Winit and a Skia Canvas to render the app.
  • core: Core logic for events, DOM processing, accessibility integration and text layout measurement is located here.
  • native-core: DOM tree-like data structure to hold all the nodes with their attribute values and registered event handlers.
  • torin: UI layout library specifically made for Freya, although it's agnostic.
  • hooks: Various Dioxus hooks to be used in Freya apps (text editing, animation, theming, etc)
  • components: Collection of built-in Dioxus components to be used out of the box with in Freya apps (Button, Switch, Slider, Table, ScrollView, etc)
  • state: Contains the internal attributes states of all the DOM Nodes.
  • elements: The definitions of all the built-in elements and events.
  • testing: Headless (non-graphic) renderer to easily test components and hooks.
  • engine: Simple re-export and mock of all Skia APIs used in freya so Freya docs can be built on docs.rs.
  • devtools: The Devtools panel used to inspect the DOM and all the Nodes in real time.
  • native-core-macro: Just some internal macros to be used in states so it can be integrated with native-core.
  • common: Some simple utilities used across the different Freya crates.
