  • Create a Markdown Editor with Rust and React
    12 projects | dev.to | 13 Oct 2022
    I opened up the src/App.tsx and added a and synced any text changes to React state.

    import { useState } from "react";
import reactLogo from "./assets/react.svg";

import "./App.css";

function App() {

<p>Now that we have a textbox we can write Markdown inside, let’s convert that to HTML to preview.</p>

  Creating a Tauri command
</h2>

<p>We’ll need to use <a href="https://tauri.app/v1/guides/features/command/">Tauri commands</a> to communicate between the frontend and backend - and vice versa (similar to <a href="https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/tutorial/ipc">the IPC layer in Electron</a>).</p>

<p>Tauri comes with an example Tauri command called <code>greet()</code> already setup, so let’s use that and change it to parse Markdown. Open up <code>src-tauri/src/main.rs</code> and change it to the following:<br>

<p>If you type some Markdown into the text box and click the button, it should print out raw HTML representing your Markdown. Here’s <a href="https://github.com/whoisryosuke/tauri-markdown-editor/commit/321f5bcfb1c0e370c27b8781d6f70fd74e6b67df">the commit on Github for reference.</a></p>

<h3>
  <a name="but-how-do-we-preview-the-html" href="#but-how-do-we-preview-the-html">
  </a>
  But how do we preview the HTML?
</h3>

<p>If we wanted to preview the HTML, we could use React’s <code>dangerouslySetInnerHTML</code> to inject the HTML inside our app:<br>
</p>

<div class="highlight js-code-highlight">
<pre class="highlight jsx"><code><span class="kd">const</span> <span class="nx">createMarkdownMarkup</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="p">()</span> <span class="o">=></span> <span class="p">({</span>

<span class="p">})</span>

<span class="o"><</span><span class="nx">div</span> <span class="nx">dangerouslySetInnerHTML</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="p">{</span><span class="nx">createMarkdownMarkup</span><span class="p">()}</span> <span class="sr">/</span><span class="err">>
</span></code></pre>
<div class="highlight__panel js-actions-panel">
<div class="highlight__panel-action js-fullscreen-code-action">
    <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20px" height="20px" viewbox="0 0 24 24" class="highlight-action crayons-icon highlight-action--fullscreen-on"><title>Enter fullscreen mode</title>

<p>And ideally, this isn’t as “dangerous” as it sounds, because <a href="https://github.com/kivikakk/comrak#security">Comrak sanitizes the Markdown output for any malicious code</a> before converting to HTML 👍</p>

<p>We could also update the <code>onChange</code> function to run our conversion process, instead of waiting for a button press, so we “instantly” see a live preview. In my case, I do it in a useEffect with a refresh boolean — but it’s all good. <em>Note, this is a little risky, since the user might be able to break the app, so in production it’d be best to create a cache of the last “working” preview just in case one fails.</em><br>

<p>Here’s <a href="https://github.com/whoisryosuke/tauri-markdown-editor/commit/4a3b351509d1ec0b363950c778f4ea42f92a32f6">the commit on Github for reference.</a></p>

  The world is your Markdown
</h1>

<p>Now you can parse Markdown using Rust, there’s lots of cool stuff you can do! From CLIs to UI apps, you can make tools that help people use Markdown. And ideally, this will run faster than most other implementations (like Electron apps) because it’s running in Rust <em>(unless you can write Markdown tooling in C or something)</em>.</p>

<p>I hope this helped you understand some Rust fundamentals and new techniques to use down the line.</p>

<p>As always, if you have any questions or make something using this guide, <a href="https://twitter.com/whoisryosuke">tag me on Twitter</a>. I’d love to help or see what cool stuff you’re hacking on.</p>

<p><strong>You can find the complete code for this post in <a href="https://github.com/whoisryosuke/tauri-markdown-editor">my tauri-markdown-editor repo</a>.</strong></p>

<p>Stay regular!<br>
