//! Dioxus WebSys
//!
//! This crate implements a renderer of the Dioxus Virtual DOM for the web browser.
//!
//! While `VNode` supports "to_string" directly, it renders child components as the RSX! macro tokens. For custom components,
//! an external renderer is needed to progress the component lifecycles. The `WebsysRenderer` shows how to use the Virtual DOM
//! API to progress these lifecycle events to generate a fully-mounted Virtual DOM instance which can be renderer in the
//! `render` method.
//!
//! ```ignore
//! fn main() {
//!     let renderer = WebsysRenderer::<()>::new(|_| html! {<div> "Hello world" </div>});
//!     let output = renderer.render();
//!     assert_eq!(output, "<div>Hello World</div>");
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! The `WebsysRenderer` is particularly useful when needing to cache a Virtual DOM in between requests
//!
