Fluxus
A minimalist UI framework inspired by component-based design, built with Scala.js.
Introduction
Fluxus is a lightweight, type-safe UI framework for Scala.js applications. It draws inspiration from modern component-based frameworks like React, but with a focus on Scala’s type safety and functional programming principles.
Key Features
- 🚀 Built on Scala.js for type-safe, performant applications
- 🧩 Component-based architecture for building modular UIs
- 🔄 Efficient virtual DOM reconciliation for optimized updates
- 🪝 Hook-based state management system (useState, useEffect, and more)
- 🔌 Powerful event handling for interactive applications
- 📝 Ergonomic syntax using Scala’s expressive type system
- ⚡ Support for asynchronous data fetching with useFetch
- 🔄 Application state management using FRP
- 🔍 Comprehensive test suite with jsdom for TDD development
Why Fluxus?
Fluxus bridges the gap between the Scala ecosystem and modern web development. If you’re a Scala developer who wants to build web UIs without switching to JavaScript or TypeScript, Fluxus provides a familiar and type-safe environment.
Unlike other Scala.js UI frameworks that use a completely different paradigm, Fluxus adopts the widely-used component and hooks pattern popularized by React. This makes it intuitive for developers familiar with modern frontend development while leveraging Scala’s powerful type system and functional features.
