Leptos Client-Side Rendered (CSR) App Starter Template

This is a template for use with the Leptos web framework using the Trunk tool to compile and serve your app in development.

Creating your repo from the template

This template requires you to have cargo-generate installed. You can install it with

cargo install cargo-generate

To set up your project with this template, run

cargo generate --git https://github.com/leptos-community/start-csr

to generate your new project, then

cd cokoala

to go to your newly created project.

By default, this template uses Rust nightly and requires that you've installed the wasm compilation target for your toolchain.

Sass and Tailwind are also supported by the Trunk build tool, but are optional additions: see here for more info on how to set those up with Trunk.

If you don't have Rust nightly, you can install it with

rustup toolchain install nightly --allow-downgrade

You can add the wasm compilation target to rust using

rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown

To develop your Leptos CSR project, running

trunk serve --port 3000 --open

will open your app in your default browser at http://localhost:3000.

To build a Leptos CSR app for release, use the command

trunk build --release

This will output the files necessary to run your app into the dist folder; you can then use any static site host to serve these files.

For further information about hosting Leptos CSR apps, please refer to the Leptos Book chapter on deployment available here.
