Dioxus is the promise of having a single code base for your mobile apps and web apps and desktop apps.
The project goal is to be a real fullstack framework. A single code base for the client and for the server.
After server side rendering and client side rendering:
So boom, third generation, full stack, best of both worlds. We do the render on the server like before, and we stream it to the client, which can display it as it’s being received. But alongside that rendered HTML, the server also sends the structured data that it used to render the HTML.
Now the whole point of having the server stream markup is that we can show it early before the app is even loaded on the client.
Dioxus offers many hooks prefixed use_ to add reactivity. "If you break the rules of hooks, you don’t get a build error or even a runtime error. You just get a weird behavior, which can be hard to debug."
A second issue is
So does Dioxus spark joy? Not yet. In the meantime, I’ll be doing Rust on the backend, and TypeScript on the frontend.
The Dioxus team is doing a lot of hard, interesting work. They have a Flexbox implementation that they’re sharing with Servo. They’re doing their own HTML and CSS renderer now to make desktop applications without a full-fledged web engine.
