You can compile your app natively or for the web.
src/app.rs
contains a simple example app. This is just to give some inspiration - most of it can be removed if you like.
The official egui docs are at https://docs.rs/egui. If you prefer watching a video introduction, check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtUkr_z7l84. For inspiration, check out the the egui web demo and follow the links in it to its source code.
Make sure you are using the latest version of stable rust by running rustup update
.
cargo run --release
On Linux you need to first run:
sudo apt-get install libxcb-render0-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev libxkbcommon-dev libssl-dev
On Fedora Rawhide you need to run:
dnf install clang clang-devel clang-tools-extra libxkbcommon-devel pkg-config openssl-devel libxcb-devel fontconfig-devel
You can compile your app to WASM and publish it as a web page.
We use Trunk to build for web target.
- Install Trunk with
cargo install --locked trunk
. - Run
trunk serve
to build and serve onhttp://127.0.0.1:8080
. Trunk will rebuild automatically if you edit the project. - Open
http://127.0.0.1:8080/index.html#dev
in a browser. See the warning below.
assets/sw.js
script will try to cache our app, and loads the cached version when it cannot connect to server allowing your app to work offline (like PWA). appending#dev
toindex.html
will skip this caching, allowing us to load the latest builds during development.
- Just run
trunk build --release
. - It will generate a
dist
directory as a "static html" website
