yew-alt-html

Alternative macro for building Html in Yew.

Example

This example represents the root App component of a Yew application. It shows interpolation in text nodes, interpolation in attributes, multiple nodes in root of the macro, shortened tag closing.

```rust use yew::prelude::*; use yewalthtml::ah;

[function_component]

pub fn App() { let name = "Yew"; let italic_style = "font-style: italic";

ah! {
    <h1 style=italic_style>"Hello " name "!"</>
    <p>"Welcome to "<code>"yew-alt-html"</>"!"</>
}

} ```

Why another `html!`?

This crate experiments on creating a macro that would be easier to use. For this, the html! syntax that was a bit cumbersome to use is replaced by direct usage of values in ah!.

Following problems should be solved by this crate:

Having to use {} inside tags even when values are simple literals.
Having to wrap attributes in {} (mind that shorthand still uses { variable }).
Having to repeat generics (Yew-only) and tag names (not very HTML to get rid of, but still neat to have considered) when closing tags.
Having to use fragment <></> when using multiple nodes in the macro root.

Possible issues

Most html! syntax should be supported by the ah! macro. If your code does not work by just replacing html! with ah!, submit an issue.

Some syntax is limited (for example, using < in attributes without an if). Suggested solution would be moving complex values into variables before ah!, or wrapping values in {} braces just like you do in html!.
