A lightweight but featureful virtual DOM library, primarily for web use.
no_std and no dependencies without the "callbacks" feature.
Please use cargo-edit to always add the latest version of this library:
cmd
cargo add lignin && cargo add -D lignin --features callbacks
Some type constraints are more strict with the "callbacks" feature enabled, so make sure to always check this way!
When writing a renderer that supports callbacks, instead use
cmd
cargo add lignin --features callbacks
to always enable the feature.
"callbacks"Enables DOM callback support. Off by default. Requires std.
Apps or components can be written against the callback API without enabling this feature, in which case those code paths can be erased at compile-time.
```rust use lignin::{Node, Element, ElementCreationOptions};
// Please bring your own allocator where necessary.
let _ = &Node::HtmlElement {
element: &Element {
name: "DIV", // Use all-caps for more efficient DOM interactions.¹
creationoptions: ElementCreationOptions::new(), // const fn builder and getter/setter patterns for extensible interfaces.
attributes: &[],
content: Node::Multi(&[
"Hello! ".into(), // Some convenience included.
