Readme

Haki

Showcase

GTK4 version of this project with proper integration using Duktape is available here.

Keep in mind:

  • None of the components generated by Layout contain anything remotely related to a Web-Browser.

  • Compiled binary reads the custom HTML and builds the GTK components. Since it is already a pre-built release version, it is pretty fast at generating the UI components.

  • The compiler supports CSS and JavaScript compilation, which glues the components and makes the UI interactive.

Installation

Before you clone the shard and build it, install the GTK libraries.

git clone git@github.com:grkek/haki.git
cd haki
shards install

Usage

# The GTK_DEBUG environment constant spawns a separate window
# with which you can debug UI elements.
