Default Project Settings

When creating Makepad projects:

Copy[package]
edition = "2024"

[dependencies]
makepad-widgets = { git = "https://github.com/makepad/makepad", branch = "dev" }

[features]
default = []
nightly = ["makepad-widgets/nightly"]

Key Patterns Quick Reference

Widget Definition

Copy#[derive(Live, LiveHook, Widget)]
pub struct MyWidget {
    #[deref] view: View,
    #[live] property: f64,
    #[rust] state: State,
    #[animator] animator: Animator,
}

Async Pattern (Robius)

Copy// UI -> Async
submit_async_request(MyRequest { ... });

// Async -> UI
Cx::post_action(MyAction { ... });
SignalToUI::set_ui_signal();
