dioxus/examples/signals.rs

//! A simple example demonstrating how to use signals to modify state from several different places.
//!
//! This simlpe example implements a counter that can be incremented, decremented, and paused. It also demonstrates
//! that background tasks in use_futures can modify the value as well.
//!
//! Most signals implement Into<ReadOnlySignal<T>>, making ReadOnlySignal a good default type when building new
//! library components that don't need to modify their values.
