This is now enabled unconditionally and the Cargo.toml option is deprecated since cargo-leptos 0.2.3, it is going to be removed in 0.3

Leptos is a SolidJS-like framework with excellent performance. It has a great server-side story as well with server-side rendering & client-side hydration as well as what they call "server functions"; essentially define a function server-side and it can be called client-side without having to deal with http and API design. Also great tooling story with cargo-leptos, leptosfmt (as well as leptos-language-server)

Leptos got it working a couple weeks ago as well: https://github.com/leptos-rs/cargo-leptos

Future opportunities - This one's tougher to speak to since leptos is new on the block. I think it's worth exploring leptos (or sycamore?) just to learn about fine-grained reactivity, and comparing how it works compared to a traditional react model. But to me the ecosystem around leptos is promising, with tools like cargo-letpos, leptosfmt, and more, it seems the community is stepping up to help fill some gaps.

We have a web components example here: https://github.com/DioxusLabs/dioxus/blob/fd21c971038840130f...

Everything should work like normal except: attributes are not typed, custom event listeners must be implemented with web-sys

I think something like https://dioxuslabs.com could deliver native, cross platform apps and win back mobile.

While we took an in-depth look at Dioxus in this tutorial, there is still so much to learn. Luckily, Dioxus provides detailed documentation with references and cookbooks to guide developers. Make sure you check it out, and feel free to comment below with any questions.

You can probably imagine the challenges of integrating such a system in a robust way that does a good job and improves on the status quo. We felt like the Tauri implementation worked well for Tauri apps. But there’s a problem: it was so tightly coupled to Tauri that the work couldn’t be enjoyed by other projects (not even the ones like Dioxus who were using Tauri’s underlying technology of Tao + Wry).

Floneum is a graph editor for local AI workflows. It uses llm to run large language models locally, egui, and dioxus for the frontend, and wasmtime for the plugin system. If you are interested in the project, consider joining the discord, or building a plugin for Floneum in rust using WASI
