A framework that allows you to build UI's using animation software
An alternative way to build mobile app UI on EVERY major framework (Flutter, React-Native, SwiftUI, and Kotlin).
Currently the app building process works as follows:
This process is accepted, and when I spoke about it, I was told to "copy paste my old code" to move faster and I should stop complaining.
But I don't like step 2 in the process above.
What if we could go from design directly to UI.
That's what I'm exploring with this framework.
The idea is:
If you're interested in helping I would appreciate that. There are currently examples in this repo for Flutter, React Native, SwiftUI, and Kotlin.
I'm currently doing the Flutter parts, I would love for react-native, iOS native, Android native and all of those to be developed / researched at the same time.
Please reach out on Twitter and I'll add you to our Discord if you'd like to help explore this idea.
These tasks are all related to the visuals and exploring how we can actually make the user interface work as expected.
Creating checkable boxes (up to 5) and update state in code
Bottom sheets (shoud be the same as normal UI)
Creating a long scrollable list view
Dynamically update text
Sync state with animation UI
Building multiple views and navigating between them
Building responsive UI's - PR
Building a design system and composing
Performing interactive gestures (Swipes)
Managing text input - Done in platform code for now
Works with a screen reader - Attempted but rive's single widget is making this difficult. Work in feat/screen-reader
These tasks are all related to improving the dev experience, majority of them will probably be code generation using dart cli (not the build_runner package).
The goal would be to read the open-source rendering runtime by rive and use it to improve the developers experience.
