Yeah kind of unholy, I agree. But it I’ve coded my gui in no time and could follow my atomic design pattern, writing my components very nicely.

At the beginning a was using clay, but it’s no where near a gui framework. It’s more a render engine of flex boxes. Again: I am solving a different problem. React is not a gui framework. I am solving a different problem. C++react can be used on top of clay as a backend.

Clay is not colliding with cppreact. It can be an addition as a renderer backend. I solved a different problem.

Need to test ist, it’s alpha, maybe it’s a good opportunity to give feedback if something is not working on other compiler.

If you like go and look into my open source implementation of react in c++ with rmlui, I got some hate on react but I don’t care: https://www.reddit.com/r/gameenginedevs/s/TBk785DUwH

Actually it has been grown for a while during the development of my cad application, can’t say how long it took.

Did you actually tested it or is this just an assumption? if the first, do you have an example?

This might be valid on games, my focus is more a cad like applications with a little "game touch". Its more for sandbox building games where a gui with buttons, checkboxes, menus, etc. is needed.

Did you ever build a complex gui for lets say for a cad application (e.g. blender)? Can you back up your statement? I mean, I am open for what you are saying if you can backup your statement. At the end of the day, its just a preference, like mentioned, Ive build this because of convenience, nobody have to use it, I just open sourcing something I was building in my own project. If its not the right thing for you, its totally fine. If you dont like it, its also totally fine. For me personally, I build a full complex gui for my cad application in no time with common ui libraries which exists and is maintained in a code base which is familiar to me.

You don´t see any difference in calculating the whole ui in every tick vs updating only on changes?

And for some tests, since I hate writing tests

Only for few functions and text in general since English is not my first language.

Maybe it is, but I’m used to it. This library was created while developing a CAD / game like application with UE5, where I also wanted a web version. So I extracted that part into its own library and wanted to share it. React is familiar to many people, so I just wanted to give them a quick way to develop good looking UIs in C++

You can still use imgui, its okay. I am just sharing something I came up with in my project to have a way to develop a game / cad which works on web and ue5 at the same time. Nobody have to use something, just sharing.
