# Examples Most of these examples are run through webview so you don't need the Dioxus CLI installed to preview the functionality. These examples are fully-fledged micro apps. They can be ran with the `cargo run --example XYZ` | Example | What it does | Status | | --------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- | ------ | | [The basics](./basics.rs) | A few basic examples to preview Dioxus | 🛠 | | [fine grained reactivity](./signals.rs) | Escape `diffing` by writing values directly | 🛠 | | [Global State Management](./statemanagement.rs) | Share state between components | 🛠 | | [Virtual Refs]() | Cross-platform imperative elements | 🛠 | | [Inline Styles](./inline-styles.rs) | Define styles for elements inline | 🛠 | | [Conditional Rendering](./conditional-rendering.rs) | Hide/Show elements using conditionals | ✅ | These examples are not necessarily meant to be run, but rather serve as a reference for the given functionality. | Example | What it does | Status | | --------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------- | ------ | | [The basics](./basics.rs) | A few basic examples to preview Dioxus | 🛠 | | [fine grained reactivity](./signals.rs) | Escape `diffing` by writing values directly | 🛠 | | [Global State Management](./statemanagement.rs) | Share state between components | 🛠 | | [Virtual Refs]() | Cross-platform imperative elements | 🛠 | | [Inline Styles](./inline-styles.rs) | Define styles for elements inline | 🛠 | | [Conditional Rendering](./conditional-rendering.rs) | Hide/Show elements using conditionals | ✅ | | [Maps/Iterators](./iterators.rs) | Use iterators in the rsx! macro | ✅ | | [Render To string](./tostring.rs) | Render a mounted virtualdom to a string | 🛠 | | [Component Children](./children.rs) | Pass children into child components | 🛠 | | [Function Driven children]() | Pass functions to make VNodes | 🛠 | | [Memoization & Borrowed Data](./memo.rs) | Suppress renders, borrow from parents | ✅ | | [Fragments](./fragments.rs) | Support root-less element groups | ✅ | | [Null/None Components](./empty.rs) | Return nothing! | 🛠 | | [Spread Pattern for props](./spreadpattern.rs) | Manually specify and override props | ✅ | | [Controlled Inputs](./controlled-inputs.rs) | this does | 🛠 | | [Custom Elements]() | Define custom elements | 🛠 | | [Web Components]() | Custom elements to interface with WebComponents | 🛠 | | [Testing And debugging]() | this does | 🛠 | | [Asynchronous Data]() | Using suspense to wait for data | 🛠 | | [Fiber/Scheduled Rendering]() | this does | 🛠 | | [CSS Compiled Styles]() | this does | 🛠 | | [Anti-patterns](./antipatterns.rs) | A collection of discouraged patterns | ✅ | | [Complete rsx reference](./rsx_usage.rs) | A complete reference for all rsx! usage | ✅ | | [Event Listeners](./listener.rs) | Attach closures to events on elements | ✅ | ## Show me some examples! In our collection of examples, guides, and tutorials, we have: - The book (an introductory course) - The guide (an in-depth analysis of everything in Dioxus) - The reference (a collection of examples with heavy documentation) - The general examples - The platform-specific examples (web, ssr, desktop, mobile, server) Here's what a few common tasks look like in Dioxus: Nested components with children and internal state: ```rust fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element { cx.render(rsx!( Toggle { "Toggle me" } )) } #[derive(PartialEq, Props)] struct ToggleProps { children: Element } fn Toggle(cx: Scope) -> Element { let mut toggled = use_state(&cx, || false); cx.render(rsx!{ div { &cx.props.children button { onclick: move |_| toggled.set(true), toggled.and_then(|| "On").or_else(|| "Off") } } }) } ``` Controlled inputs: ```rust fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element { let value = use_state(&cx, String::new); cx.render(rsx!( input { "type": "text", value: "{value}", oninput: move |evt| value.set(evt.value.clone()) } )) } ``` Lists and Conditional rendering: ```rust fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element { let list = (0..10).map(|i| { rsx!(li { key: "{i}", "Value: {i}" }) }); let title = match list.len() { 0 => rsx!("Not enough"), _ => rsx!("Plenty!"), }; if should_show { cx.render(rsx!( title, ul { list } )) } else { None } } ``` Tiny components: ```rust static App: Component = |cx| rsx!(cx, div {"hello world!"}); ``` Borrowed prop contents: ```rust fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element { let name = use_state(&cx, || String::from("example")); rsx!(cx, Child { title: name.as_str() }) } #[derive(Props)] struct ChildProps<'a> { title: &'a str } fn Child(cx: Scope) -> Element { rsx!(cx, "Hello {cx.props.title}") } ``` Global State ```rust struct GlobalState { name: String } fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element { use_provide_shared_state(cx, || GlobalState { name: String::from("Toby") }) rsx!(cx, Leaf {}) } fn Leaf(cx: Scope) -> Element { let state = use_consume_shared_state::(cx)?; rsx!(cx, "Hello {state.name}") } ``` Router (inspired by Yew-Router) ```rust #[derive(PartialEq, Clone, Hash, Eq, Routable)] enum Route { #[at("/")] Home, #[at("/post/{id}")] Post(id) } fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element { let route = use_router(cx, Route::parse); cx.render(rsx!(div { match route { Route::Home => rsx!( Home {} ), Route::Post(id) => rsx!( Post { id: id }) } })) } ``` Suspense ```rust fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element { let doggo = use_suspense(cx, || async { reqwest::get("https://dog.ceo/api/breeds/image/random").await.unwrap().json::().await.unwrap() }, |response| cx.render(rsx!( img { src: "{response.message}" })) ); cx.render(rsx!{ div { "One doggo coming right up:", doggo } }) } ```
