> Native UI framework: HAL · raster · layout · text · theme · ui — plus widgets and modules.
|
|
|
|
`llimphi` is a sovereign, retained-mode UI framework with an Elm-style loop (`input → update → view → layout → raster → present`). Declarative pipeline over `vello` + `wgpu` + `taffy` + `parley`, with `Dark/Light/Aurora/Sunset` themes and a multi-platform HAL (Wayland · X11 · Win32 · Android · Wawa bare-metal). It powers a full Rust application suite; this repository is the framework extracted to stand on its own.

**Usage manual:** [MANUAL.md](MANUAL.md) — full reference (Elm loop, `View<Msg>` DSL, the ~44 widgets and 10 modules, GPU path, gotchas) for humans and AI. Design rationale and roadmap: [SDD.md](SDD.md).
|
|
|
|
Philosophy: **widgets aren't designed against mockups; they're designed with what `vello` and `taffy` can do.**
|
|
|
|
## Quick start
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone https://gitea.gioser.net/sergio/llimphi.git
|
|
cd llimphi
|
|
cargo run -p llimphi-ui --example counter # ~124 LOC: the full Elm loop on screen
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
llimphi-ui = { git = "https://gitea.gioser.net/sergio/llimphi.git" }
|
|
llimphi-theme = { git = "https://gitea.gioser.net/sergio/llimphi.git" }
|
|
# widgets are one crate each — pull only what you use:
|
|
llimphi-widget-button = { git = "https://gitea.gioser.net/sergio/llimphi.git" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Compatibility
|
|
|
|
- **Linux/Wayland** — primary backend.
|
|
- **Linux/X11** — via XWayland.
|
|
- **macOS / Windows** — `winit` + `wgpu`.
|
|
- **Android** — HAL via `android` crates.
|
|
- **Wawa bare-metal** — alternative framebuffer HAL.
|
|
|
|
Crates listed in [README.md](README.md) (framework, widgets, modules, android).
|
|
|
|
## Considerations
|
|
|
|
- **Single API: declarative `View<Msg>`.** No imperative, no foreign vDOM.
|
|
- **Same scene tree on Wayland and Wawa**: HAL abstracts the surface.
|
|
- Widgets are **purely visual**; modules encapsulate state + behavior.
