sauron

Sauron is a versatile web framework and library for building client-side and/or server-side web applications with strong focus on ergonomics, simplicity and elegance. This allows you to write least amount of code possible, and focus more on the business logic rather than the inner details of the framework.

Sauron is inspired by elm-lang and is following The Elm Architecture.

Features

  • server-side rendering
  • static site generation
  • progressive rendering
  • web components / custom-element
  • html syntax for writing views
  • elegant macro to write styles
  • batteries included

Devoid of unnecessary framework complexities

  • no framework specific cli needed
  • no template specific language as everything is in rust.
    • Model and update function is all in rust.
    • view? in rust
    • events handling? rust
    • styling? believe it or not: rust

In a sauron application, there is only the model, view and update. The model is your application state. The view describes how to present the model to the user. The update function describes how to update the model, this uses message which contains the data needed for updating the model.

Counter example

In your src/lib.rs

use sauron::{
    html::text, html::units::px, jss, node, wasm_bindgen, Application, Cmd, Node, Program,
};

enum Msg {
    Increment,
    Decrement,
    Reset,
}

struct App {
    count: i32,
}

impl App {
    fn new() -> Self {
        App { count: 0 }
    }
}

impl Application<Msg> for App {
    fn view(&self) -> Node<Msg> {
        node! {
            <main>
                <input type="button"
                    value="+"
                    on_click=|_| {
                        Msg::Increment
                    }
                />
                <button class="count" on_click=|_|{Msg::Reset} >{text(self.count)}</button>
                <input type="button"
                    value="-"
                    on_click=|_| {
                        Msg::Decrement
                    }
                />
            </main>
        }
    }

    fn update(&mut self, msg: Msg) -> Cmd<Self, Msg> {
        match msg {
            Msg::Increment => self.count += 1,
            Msg::Decrement => self.count -= 1,
            Msg::Reset => self.count = 0,
        }
        Cmd::none()
    }

    fn stylesheet() -> Vec<String> {
        vec![jss! {
            "body":{
                font_family: "verdana, arial, monospace",
            },

            "main":{
                width: px(30),
                height: px(100),
                margin: "auto",
                text_align: "center",
            },

            "input, .count":{
                font_size: px(40),
                padding: px(30),
                margin: px(30),
            }
        }]
    }
}

#[wasm_bindgen(start)]
pub fn start() {
    Program::mount_to_body(App::new());
}
