# gpui-toolkit

Libraries, examples, and tooling for building GPUI applications with native
`div()`-based rendering, reusable components, charting primitives, design
tokens, and Apple mobile backends.

[![License](https://img.shields.io/crates/l/gpui-ui-kit)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pierreaubert/gpui-toolkit/main/LICENSE)

This is pre-1.0 software with a deliberately narrow crates.io surface. The
first registry wave is `gpui-design`, `gpui-profiler`, and
`gpui-ui-kit-macros`; GPUI-dependent crates are distributed as source beta.
See [RELEASE.md](./RELEASE.md) for exact lanes and guarantees.

## Examples

Two open source examples:

- [SotF](https://github.com/pierreaubert/sotf) available in the [Apple](https://apps.apple.com/ch/app/sound-of-the-future/id6754237332) and [Windows](https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9NXCMV37NXJ7) app stores, see GH for latest versions and Linux builds, 100% built with this toolkit. It works on ARM and X86 with iOS and macOS ports underway.
- [StkOpt](https://github.com/pierreaubert/stkopt) is a simpler example

## GPUI Version

This workspace is currently on the `0.9.x` GPUI toolkit line and pins GPUI
packages to Zed `v1.9.0` through the root [Cargo.toml](./Cargo.toml).

The workspace uses local path dependencies for toolkit crates and history-free
vendored GPUI platform snapshots under `crates/3rdparties/`; the source-origin
gate rejects dependencies that still resolve from `zed-industries/zed.git`.

## Common Commands

```bash
# List tasks
just --list

# Check the workspace
just check

# Build all showcase-style demo targets
just demo

# Build maintained examples by crate family
just examples

# Run focused QA
just qa-gpui-obvious
```

## QA & Non-Regression

The full QA suite is `just qa`. It runs coverage, property tests, visual
non-regression, performance non-regression, and the existing smoke tests:

```bash
just qa           # green canonical gate; coverage floor ratchets upward
just qa-prop      # property-based tests
just qa-visual    # visual/golden/conformance checks
just qa-perf      # benchmark non-regression against qa/perf/baseline.json
just qa-cov       # workspace coverage report (HTML + JSON)
just qa-cov-check # enforced current floor; 90% remains the release target
just qa-release-contract # governance, MSRV metadata, packages, docs, and API policy
```

Update the committed performance baseline after intentional improvements:

```bash
just qa-perf-update
```

See [`qa.md`](./qa.md) for the detailed coverage and non-regression plan, and
[`docs/safety.md`](./docs/safety.md) for the enforced unsafe-Rust boundaries
and review requirements.

If the pinned Rust toolchain is unavailable locally, use an installed toolchain
explicitly:

```bash
cargo +stable check --workspace --all-targets
```

## Scaffolding Mini Apps

Use `gpui-scaffolder` to generate a small standalone GPUI app directory:

```bash
cargo run -p gpui-scaffolder -- my-app
cd my-app
cargo run
```

Generated projects also include a `just run` recipe:

```bash
just run
```

To create the app somewhere else, pass `--output-dir`:

```bash
cargo run -p gpui-scaffolder -- my-app --output-dir /tmp
```

## Demos

The aggregate `just demo` builds:

- `gpui-audio-kit` examples
- `gpui-builder` layout showcase
- `gpui-component-lab`
- `gpui-d3rs` showcase and spinorama demo
- `gpui-px` showcase and spinorama demo
- `gpui-python-runtime` showcase
- `gpui-themes` showcase
- `gpui-ui-kit` showcase

Individual recipes are available as `just demo-ui-kit`, `just demo-d3rs`,
`just demo-px`, `just demo-builder`, `just demo-component-lab`,
`just demo-audio-kit`, `just demo-python`, and `just demo-themes`.

## Examples

The Python declarations can be installed directly from PyPI:

```bash
python -m pip install gpui-toolkit
```

Then import the API as `gpui_toolkit`. Supported-platform wheels include the
matching native rendering host, so no Rust installation is needed. Source
installs and unsupported platforms provide the declarations only and require
`GPUI_TOOLKIT_HOST` when launching a native app.

The aggregate `just examples` builds maintained example families:

```bash
just examples-audio-kit
just examples-builder
just examples-d3rs
just examples-px
just examples-ui-kit
```

For the QR rendering example:

```bash
just run-qr-debug
```

Camera scanning is deliberately left to host applications so the UI kit does
not impose a native capture backend or operating-system permission model.

## iOS

The iOS showcase lives in [crates/gpui-showcase/ios](./crates/gpui-showcase/ios/).
It builds the Rust static library and links it into the bundled Swift
`GPUIShowcase.xcodeproj`.

```bash
# Rust static libraries
just ios-rust-sim
just ios-rust-device

# Copy static libraries into the Xcode project
just ios-build-rust-sim
just ios-build-rust-device

# Generate/update the Xcode project with XcodeGen
just ios-xcodegen

# Build the Swift host app
just ios-sim
just ios-device

# Build simulator hot-reload dylib and manifest
just ios-hot-reload
```

The `showcase-*` recipe names from the old SOTF workspace are also available,
for example `just showcase-build-sim`.

## tvOS

tvOS is a Tier 3 Rust target, so the tvOS recipes use nightly with
`-Zbuild-std`. Install the prerequisites first:

```bash
rustup toolchain install nightly
rustup component add rust-src --toolchain nightly
```

Then build the showcase Rust static library for tvOS:

```bash
just tvos-rust-sim
just tvos-rust-device
just tvos-build-rust-sim
just tvos-build-rust-device
just tvos-sim
just tvos-device
```

This repo currently ships an iOS Swift host project. The tvOS recipes produce
the Rust library artifacts and copy them next to the mobile showcase assets.

## Quick Example

```rust
use gpui::*;
use gpui_ui_kit::{Button, ButtonVariant};
use gpui_px::scatter;

let button = Button::new("submit", "Submit")
    .variant(ButtonVariant::Primary)
    .on_click(|_, _| println!("Clicked"));

let chart = scatter(&x_data, &y_data)
    .title("My Data")
    .build()?;
```
