|
`iced_web` takes [`iced_core`] and builds a WebAssembly runtime on top. It achieves this by introducing a `Widget` trait that can be used to produce VDOM nodes.
|
|
|
|
The crate is currently a __very experimental__, simple abstraction layer over [`dodrio`].

[`iced_core`]: ../core

|
## Installation
|
|
Add `iced_web` as a dependency in your `Cargo.toml`:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
iced_web = "0.1.0-alpha"
|
|
```
|

## Usage
|
|
The current build process is a bit involved, as [`wasm-pack`] does not currently [support building binary crates](https://github.com/rustwasm/wasm-pack/issues/734).
|
|
|
|
Therefore, we instead build using the `wasm32-unknown-unknown` target and use the [`wasm-bindgen`] CLI to generate appropriate bindings.
|
|
|
|
For instance, let's say we want to build the [`tour` example]:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd examples
|
|
cargo build --example tour --target wasm32-unknown-unknown
|
|
wasm-bindgen ../target/wasm32-unknown-unknown/debug/examples/tour.wasm --out-dir tour --web
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, we need to create an `.html` file to load our application:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<!DOCTYPE html>
|
|
<html>
|
|
<head>
|
|
<meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
|
|
<title>Tour - Iced</title>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<body>
|
|
<script type="module">
|
|
import init from "./tour/tour.js";
|
|
|
|
init('./tour/tour_bg.wasm');
|
|
</script>
|
|
</body>
|
|
</html>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Finally, we serve it using an HTTP server and access it with our browser.
