# appy
Declarative cross-platform UI framework in Rust for native applications. More info in [this article](https://medium.com/@limikael/declarative-ui-programming-in-rust-for-native-applications-d93862886545).
### Running the examples locally
Should be as easy as cloning the code and running one of these:
cargo run --example hello
cargo run --example calculator
...
Check the examples folder for more examples.
### Running the examples on Android
First install and set up [cargo-sdl-apk](https://crates.io/crates/cargo-sdl-apk).
Then, running the examples on android should be as easy as locally, almost:
cargo sdl-apk run --example hello
### Changing rendering backend
Appy is, by default, using [SDL](https://www.libsdl.org/) to render its graphics. It also supports
[Glutin](https://crates.io/crates/glutin), which can be turned on as a feature. Check `platform-examples/test-glutin`
for a project that is set up to use it. Running locally is done in the same way, i.e. with `cargo run`, but if you want to use Glutin on Android you need to use [cargo-apk](https://crates.io/crates/cargo-apk) instead of cargo-sdl-apk.
### Live reload
If you want live reload during development this can be done with [cargo-watch](https://crates.io/crates/cargo-watch). Install it and run:
```
cargo watch -x run
```
