It looks like this is a web UI library, so it would just render using regular html.

I wish they said that on the homepage. I assumed it could render to the desktop or something, and I had to read tea leaves to figure that out.

The first sentence of this page says it:

> Sycamore is a next gen Rust *web* UI library powered by fine-grained reactivity.


That’s because I’ve changed it since posting this!

How does that mean that shouldn't have a demo available?

There are a lot of demos! Check out the examples/ folder on GitHub.

Folders on Github is not a demo.

This is why open source doesn't gain traction.

"Hey can i see a cool demo of your stuff"

"No, FU, here is some code in a folder somewhere. F'n normals can't even compile. doh."


If you actually read the README.md file, the first few lines say that there are hosted versions available that you can view directly in your browser. I also mentioned this in another comment. I don't know what else you want...

This wasn't necessarily aimed at this project.

I just see a lot of open source projects fail on the basic "get the message out".

And, I actually would like to use a Rust / Wasm UI.

That's what was frustrating. I'm looking for this. And still, had to wade through site to find some slick demo showing the merits of the speed and responsiveness. You want some snappy demos to show zip. It says 'reactivity', so I was expecting some super fast demo.


This?

Sure. Ok. Now, put those links on the main page with a big bold "Examples Here". Is it that hard. Why make potential users wade through 5 clicks to get to an example, and then see if they are interested enough to persue further.

If you want users, put in bold, splashy, easy to get to.

It isn't that hard.

Viewing on examples.sycamore.dev All the examples are hosted under examples.sycamore.dev/<example_name> with <example_name> being the name of the example you want to view. For instance, the todomvc example is hosted on examples.sycamore.dev/todomvc.
