1//! # Welcome to GPUI!
  2//!
  3//! GPUI is a hybrid immediate and retained mode, GPU accelerated, UI framework
  4//! for Rust, designed to support a wide variety of applications.
  5//!
  6//! ## Getting Started
  7//!
  8//! GPUI is still in active development as we work on the Zed code editor and isn't yet on crates.io.
  9//! You'll also need to use the latest version of stable rust. Add the following to your Cargo.toml:
 10//!
 11//! ```
 12//! gpui = { git = "https://github.com/zed-industries/zed" }
 13//! ```
 14//!
 15//! Everything in GPUI starts with an [`App`]. You can create one with [`App::new`], and
 16//! kick off your application by passing a callback to [`App::run`]. Inside this callback,
 17//! you can create a new window with [`AppContext::open_window`], and register your first root
 18//! view. See [gpui.rs](https://www.gpui.rs/) for a complete example.
 19//!
 20//! ## The Big Picture
 21//!
 22//! GPUI offers three different [registers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Register_(sociolinguistics)) depending on your needs:
 23//!
 24//! - State management and communication with Models. Whenever you need to store application state
 25//!   that communicates between different parts of your application, you'll want to use GPUI's
 26//!   models. Models are owned by GPUI and are only accessible through an owned smart pointer
 27//!   similar to an [`Rc`]. See the [`app::model_context`] module for more information.
 28//!
 29//! - High level, declarative UI with Views. All UI in GPUI starts with a View. A view is simply
 30//!   a model that can be rendered, via the [`Render`] trait. At the start of each frame, GPUI
 31//!   will call this render method on the root view of a given window. Views build a tree of
 32//!   `elements`, lay them out and style them with a tailwind-style API, and then give them to
 33//!   GPUI to turn into pixels. See the [`elements::Div`] element for an all purpose swiss-army
 34//!   knife for UI.
 35//!
 36//! - Low level, imperative UI with Elements. Elements are the building blocks of UI in GPUI, and they
 37//!   provide a nice wrapper around an imperative API that provides as much flexibility and control as
 38//!   you need. Elements have total control over how they and their child elements are rendered and
 39//!   can be used for making efficient views into large lists, implement custom layouting for a code editor,
 40//!   and anything else you can think of. See the [`element`] module for more information.
 41//!
 42//!  Each of these registers has one or more corresponding contexts that can be accessed from all GPUI services.
 43//!  This context is your main interface to GPUI, and is used extensively throughout the framework.
 44//!
 45//! ## Other Resources
 46//!
 47//! In addition to the systems above, GPUI provides a range of smaller services that are useful for building
 48//! complex applications:
 49//!
 50//! - Actions are user-defined structs that are used for converting keystrokes into logical operations in your UI.
 51//!   Use this for implementing keyboard shortcuts, such as cmd-q. See the [`action`] module for more information.
 52//! - Platform services, such as `quit the app` or `open a URL` are available as methods on the [`app::AppContext`].
 53//! - An async executor that is integrated with the platform's event loop. See the [`executor`] module for more information.,
 54//! - The [gpui::test] macro provides a convenient way to write tests for your GPUI applications. Tests also have their
 55//!   own kind of context, a [`TestAppContext`] which provides ways of simulating common platform input. See [`app::test_context`]
 56//!   and [`test`] modules for more details.
 57//!
 58//! Currently, the best way to learn about these APIs is to read the Zed source code, ask us about it at a fireside hack, or drop
 59//! a question in the [Zed Discord](https://discord.gg/U4qhCEhMXP). We're working on improving the documentation, creating more examples,
 60//! and will be publishing more guides to GPUI on our [blog](https://zed.dev/blog).
