Rust + Yew + WebAssembly codebase containing real world examples (CRUD, auth, advanced patterns, etc) that adheres to the RealWorld spec and API.
This codebase was created to demonstrate a fully fledged WebAssembly web application built with Yew including CRUD operations, authentication, routing, pagination, and more. It utilizes Yew's latest function components and hooks. It also supports desktop application powered by Tauri.
We've gone to great lengths to adhere to the Yew community styleguides & best practices.
For more information on how to this works with other frontends/backends, head over to the RealWorld repo.

This is an application written in Rust that utilizes Yew and WebAssembly for developing the frontend web app that powers the RealWorld application.
You can view a full list of crates being used in Cargo.toml, but here are some of the main ones of note:
- yew - a modern Rust framework for creating multi-threaded frontend apps with WebAssembly.
- yew-router - a routing library for the Yew framework.
- yew-hooks - Hooks for the Yew web framework, inspired by react hook libs like streamich/react-use and alibaba/hooks.
- lazy_static - a macro for declaring lazily evaluated statics in Rust.
- parking_lot - provides implementations of
Mutex,RwLock,CondvarandOnceetc. - pulldown-cmark - a pull parser for CommonMark, used to parse Markdown.
- serde - a generic serialization/deserialization framework.
