Webua

This is a very work-in-progress Uiua backend web framework.

Templating

Templating is done with tag functions. A tag function is given attributes using data definition field setters (°⊸Attr Value) corresponding to HTML attribute names. Any unrecognized attributes can be specified using the field X which inserts arbitrary code into the tag. Tag functions which take children do so via a stack argument, which is joined together into a string if it's a list of boxes.

Html ~ "git: github.com/uiua-lang/webua"

Html!(Html {
  Head {
    Title "Example"
    Meta!°⊸Charset "utf-8"
    Link!°⊸⊃Rel Href "stylesheet" "style.css"
  }
  Body {
    H₁ "Webua Example"
    P "This is a simple example of Webua templating."
    Br
  }
})

You can use normal Uiua primitives to fill out data.

Html ~ "git: github.com/uiua-lang/webua"

$Users {"Alice" "Bob" "Carol"}
Html!(Div {
  H₁ "Users"
  Ul ⍚Li
})
## "<div><h1>Users</h1><ul><li>Alice</li><li>Bob</li><li>Carol</li></ul></div>"

Routing

Server routing is implemented by passing a router function to the Serve! macro. See the examples.
