cargo-leptos

Build tool for Leptos.

Features

• SCSS compilation using dart-sass.
• CSS transformation and minification using Lightning CSS. See docs for full details.
• Builds server and client (wasm) binaries using Cargo.
• Generates JS - Wasm bindings with wasm-bindgen
• Optimises the wasm with wasm-opt from Binaryen
• Generation of rust code for integrating with a server of choice.
• --csr mode, building only the client side rendered wasm, for a fast development experience.
• Standard mode for building full server and client.
• watch command for automatic rebuilds with browser autoreload. Works both for --csr and standard mode.
• test command for running tests. Note that this runs cargo test for the three different modes (csr, hydrate and ssr).
• build command for building (normal mode or --csr).
• end2end command (WIP!) for building, running the server and calling a bash shell hook. The hook would typically launch Playwright or similar.

• new command for creating a new project based on templates, using cargo-generate. WIP: You'll need to ask on the Leptos discord for the url of a template.
