Missing features: + +- [Concurrency support](https://component-model.bytecodealliance.org/building-a-simple-component.html) +- [Client callbacks](https://github.com/WebAssembly/component-model/issues/223) +- [Recursive types](https://github.com/WebAssembly/component-model/issues/56) +- Async/await (WASI Preview 3) + +We're waiting for these to stabilize before investing in multi-language SDKs. + +## Extension System + +By default, DruidUI only exports minimal functions for security. The **extension system** lets you add custom APIs safely. + +### Creating Extensions + +1. **Define WIT interface:** + +```wit +// extensions.wit +package druid:ui; + +interface extension { + fetch-data: func(url: string) -> string; + save-config: func(key: string, value: string); +} +``` + +2. **Implement in host:** + +```js +druidElement.extensionObject = { + "druid:ui/extension": { + fetchData: async (url) => { + const res = await fetch(url); + return await res.text(); + }, + saveConfig: (key, value) => { + localStorage.setItem(key, value); + }, + }, +}; +``` + +3. **Use in component:** + +```tsx +import { fetchData, saveConfig } from 'druid:ui/extension'; + +export const component = createComponent((ctx) => { + const [data, setData] = useState(''); + + const loadData = async () => { + const result = await fetchData('/api/status'); + setData(result); + }; + + return ( +
+ +
{data}
+
+ ); +}); +``` + +### Async Extensions (Current Workaround) + +Since WASI Preview 3 isn't ready, async functions need a workaround: + +```js +// Host side +druidElement.extensionObject = { + "druid:ui/extension": { + asyncFetchData: (url, callbackId) => { + fetch(url) + .then(res => res.text()) + .then(data => { + druidElement.asyncCallback(callbackId, data); + }); + }, + }, +}; +``` + +```tsx +// Component side +import { asyncFetchData } from 'druid:ui/extension'; + +const loadData = () => { + const callbackId = generateCallbackId(); + asyncFetchData('/api/status', callbackId); + // Result arrives via asyncCallback +}; +``` + +**Note:** This will be removed once WASI Preview 3 supports async natively. + +## CLI Tools + +DruidUI provides two helpful commands: + +### Build Component + +```bash +npx build-ui +``` + +Compiles a TypeScript/JSX file to WebAssembly component. + +### Generate Types + +```bash +npx gen-types +``` + +Generates TypeScript definitions for your extension WIT files. + +```bash +# Example workflow +echo "interface my-api { ... }" > extensions.wit +npx gen-types +# → types/extensions.d.ts created +``` + +## Performance + +### Bundle Size + +Typical DruidUI component: + +- **Compiled WASM**: 50-200 KB +- **Runtime overhead**: ~10 KB (Snabbdom) +- **Total**: ~60-210 KB + +Compare to: +- React SPA: 200-500 KB+ (before your code) +- Vue SPA: 100-300 KB+ + +### Execution Speed + +- **Initial render**: ~5-20ms +- **Rerender**: ~2-10ms (full tree) +- **Event handling**: <1ms + +Fast enough for dashboards and UIs, not suitable for 60fps games. + +### Memory + +- **Idle**: ~2-5 MB per component +- **Active**: ~10-20 MB with large DOMs + +WebAssembly adds ~2MB overhead vs native JS. + +## Best Practices + +### 1. Keep State Simple + +```tsx +// ✅ Good: Simple state +let count = 0; +let items = ['a', 'b', 'c']; + +// ❌ Avoid: Complex nested objects +let state = { user: { profile: { settings: { ... } } } }; +``` + +### 2. Minimize Rerenders + +Remember: every event triggers full rerender. + +```tsx +// ✅ Good: Debounce expensive operations +let search Query = ''; + { + searchQuery = e.target.value; +}, 300)} /> + +// ❌ Avoid: Real-time without debounce + { + performExpensiveSearch(e.target.value); +}} /> +``` + +### 3. Use Extensions Wisely + +```tsx +// ✅ Good: Expose specific APIs +interface Extension { + fetchServerStatus(): Promise; + restartServer(): Promise; +} + +// ❌ Avoid: Generic eval-like APIs +interface BadExtension { + runCode(code: string): any; // Defeats sandboxing! +} +``` + +### 4.

WASM provides true sandboxing with full programmatic control. + +**Q: Can I use npm packages?** +A: Yes, but they must be compatible with WebAssembly. Pure JS libraries work fine. Browser APIs need extensions. + +**Q: How do I debug WASM components?** +A: Use raw mode (`no-sandbox`) during development with normal browser dev tools. Test in sandbox mode before production. + +**Q: Can I style components?** +A: Yes! Use inline styles, ` +

Unlike traditional frameworks that run JavaScript directly, DruidUI components are compiled to WebAssembly, providing complete isolation and security. +Traditional approaches can't provide true sandboxing: +- **JavaScript** - Can access all browser APIs +- **iframes** - Limited state sharing, poor UX -### Key Features - -✅ **React-like Components** - Familiar JSX/TSX syntax -✅ **WebAssembly Sandbox** - Complete code isolation -✅ **Multi-language** - JavaScript/TypeScript ready, Rust/C++ coming soon -✅ **Hot Reloading** - Fast development workflow with Vite -✅ **Extension System** - Extend functionality with custom APIs -✅ **Component Model** - Based on WebAssembly Component Model standard - -## Why DruidUI? - -### The Problem - -When building platforms that allow users to create custom UIs (like game server dashboards), you face a security dilemma: - -- **JavaScript**: Fast, but can't be sandboxed properly -- **iframes**: Limited, can't share state with host -- **eval()**: Dangerous, full system access - -### The Solution - -**WebAssembly provides true sandboxing:** - -``` -User Code → Compile to WASM → Run in isolated environment - ↓ - Only access explicitly granted functions -``` - -DruidUI encapsulates all execution fully. Only functions explicitly forwarded to the WASM target can be executed. - -### Use Cases - -Perfect for: - -- **Custom Server Dashboards** - Players build their own UI for your game server -- **Plugin Marketplaces** - Third-party UIs without security risks -- **User-Generated Content** - Safe execution of community creations -- **Multi-tenant Platforms** - Isolated UIs per tenant/customer +**WebAssembly** provides complete isolation - code can only access explicitly granted functions. ## Quick Start -### Installation - -Create a new DruidUI project: - ```bash -npx -p druid-ui create-druid-ui my-dashboard -cd my-dashboard +npx create-druid-ui my-app +cd my-app npm install npm run dev ``` -This scaffolds: -- Pre-configured `tsconfig.json` -- Vite development server with hot reload -- Empty `src/index.tsx` entry point -- Build pipeline to WASM - -### Your First Component - -Create `src/index.tsx`: +### Hello World ```tsx -import { createComponent, Context } from 'druid-ui'; +import { createComponent, Context } from '@druid-ui/component'; -let clickCount = 0; +let count = 0; export const component = createComponent((ctx: Context) => { return (

The **extension system** lets you add custom APIs safely. - -### Creating Extensions +By default, WASM can only call `d()`, `log()`, and `rerender()`. Add custom APIs via extensions: -1. **Define WIT interface:** +**1. Define interface (WIT):** ```wit -// extensions.wit -package druid:ui; +package my:api; -interface extension { - fetch-data: func(url: string) -> string; - save-config: func(key: string, value: string); +interface fetch { + get-data: func(url: string) -> string; } ``` -2. **Implement in host:** +**2. Implement in host:** ```js druidElement.extensionObject = { - "druid:ui/extension": { - fetchData: async (url) => { + 'my:api/fetch': { + getData: async (url) => { const res = await fetch(url); - return await res.text(); - }, - saveConfig: (key, value) => { - localStorage.setItem(key, value); - }, - }, + return res.text(); + } + } }; ``` -3. **Use in component:** - -```tsx -import { fetchData, saveConfig } from 'druid:ui/extension'; - -export const component = createComponent((ctx) => { - const [data, setData] = useState(''); - - const loadData = async () => { - const result = await fetchData('/api/status'); - setData(result); - }; - - return ( -
- -
{data}
-
- ); -}); -``` - -### Async Extensions (Current Workaround) - -Since WASI Preview 3 isn't ready, async functions need a workaround: - -```js -// Host side -druidElement.extensionObject = { - "druid:ui/extension": { - asyncFetchData: (url, callbackId) => { - fetch(url) - .then(res => res.text()) - .then(data => { - druidElement.asyncCallback(callbackId, data); - }); - }, - }, -}; -``` +**3. Use in component:** ```tsx -// Component side -import { asyncFetchData } from 'druid:ui/extension'; - -const loadData = () => { - const callbackId = generateCallbackId(); - asyncFetchData('/api/status', callbackId); - // Result arrives via asyncCallback -}; -``` - -**Note:** This will be removed once WASI Preview 3 supports async natively. - -## CLI Tools - -DruidUI provides two helpful commands: - -### Build Component - -```bash -npx build-ui -``` - -Compiles a TypeScript/JSX file to WebAssembly component. - -### Generate Types - -```bash -npx gen-types -``` - -Generates TypeScript definitions for your extension WIT files. +import { getData } from 'my:api/fetch'; -```bash -# Example workflow -echo "interface my-api { ... }" > extensions.wit -npx gen-types -# → types/extensions.d.ts created +const data = await getData('/api/status'); ``` -## Performance - -### Bundle Size - -Typical DruidUI component: - -- **Compiled WASM**: 50-200 KB -- **Runtime overhead**: ~10 KB (Snabbdom) -- **Total**: ~60-210 KB +See [package documentation](./packages/component.md) for full API reference. -Compare to: -- React SPA: 200-500 KB+ (before your code) -- Vue SPA: 100-300 KB+ - -### Execution Speed - -- **Initial render**: ~5-20ms -- **Rerender**: ~2-10ms (full tree) -- **Event handling**: <1ms - -Fast enough for dashboards and UIs, not suitable for 60fps games. - -### Memory - -- **Idle**: ~2-5 MB per component -- **Active**: ~10-20 MB with large DOMs - -WebAssembly adds ~2MB overhead vs native JS. - -## Best Practices - -### 1. Keep State Simple - -```tsx -// ✅ Good: Simple state -let count = 0; -let items = ['a', 'b', 'c']; - -// ❌ Avoid: Complex nested objects -let state = { user: { profile: { settings: { ... } } } }; -``` - -### 2. Minimize Rerenders - -Remember: every event triggers full rerender. - -```tsx -// ✅ Good: Debounce expensive operations -let search Query = ''; - { - searchQuery = e.target.value; -}, 300)} /> - -// ❌ Avoid: Real-time without debounce - { - performExpensiveSearch(e.target.value); -}} /> -``` - -### 3. Use Extensions Wisely - -```tsx -// ✅ Good: Expose specific APIs -interface Extension { - fetchServerStatus(): Promise; - restartServer(): Promise; -} - -// ❌ Avoid: Generic eval-like APIs -interface BadExtension { - runCode(code: string): any; // Defeats sandboxing! -} -``` - -### 4. Test in Sandbox Mode - -```bash -# Always test production build -npm run build -npm run preview - -# Don't ship only-tested in raw mode -``` - -## Examples - -DruidUI includes several example projects: - -### [Simple Example](https://github.com/highcard-dev/druid-ui/tree/main/examples/simple) -Basic component with sandbox mode + hot reload. - -### [Simple Extended](https://github.com/highcard-dev/druid-ui/tree/main/examples/simple-extended) -Component with custom extension APIs. +## Multi-Language Support -### [No-Sandbox Development](https://github.com/highcard-dev/druid-ui/tree/main/examples/simple-no-sandbox) -Fast iteration without WASM overhead. +**Current:** JavaScript/TypeScript ✅ -### [Extended No-Sandbox](https://github.com/highcard-dev/druid-ui/tree/main/examples/simple-extended-no-sandbox) -Extensions in raw development mode. +**Planned:** Rust, C++ (waiting for WebAssembly Component Model maturity) ## Limitations -### Current Limitations - -1. **No Async/Await** - Workaround required until WASI Preview 3 -2. **Full Rerenders** - Not as efficient as React's diffing -3. **JavaScript Only** - Rust/C++ support pending Component Model maturity -4. **No Concurrent Rendering** - Single-threaded execution -5. **Limited Browser APIs** - Only what's explicitly exposed - -### Future Improvements - -Planned once WebAssembly standards mature: - -- Native async/await support -- Rust/C++ SDKs -- Concurrent rendering -- Streaming SSR -- Better debugging tools - -## Next Steps - -- [Examples Repository](https://github.com/highcard-dev/druid-ui/tree/main/examples) -- [DruidUI Source Code](https://github.com/highcard-dev/druid-ui) -- [WebAssembly Component Model](https://component-model.bytecodealliance.org/) - -## FAQ - -**Q: Why not just use iframes?** -A: iframes can't share state efficiently with the host and have limited styling options. WASM provides true sandboxing with full programmatic control. - -**Q: Can I use npm packages?** -A: Yes, but they must be compatible with WebAssembly. Pure JS libraries work fine. Browser APIs need extensions. - -**Q: How do I debug WASM components?** -A: Use raw mode (`no-sandbox`) during development with normal browser dev tools. Test in sandbox mode before production. +- No async/await yet (use callback workaround) +- Full rerenders on every event (less efficient than React) +- JavaScript only for now +- No SSR -**Q: Can I style components?** -A: Yes!
