eframe: the egui framework

eframe is the official framework library for writing apps using egui. The app can be compiled both to run natively (cross platform) or be compiled to a web app (using WASM).

To get started, go to https://github.com/emilk/eframe_template/ and follow the instructions there!

You can also take a look at the eframe examples folder. There is also an excellent tutorial video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtUkr_z7l84.

For how to use egui, see the egui docs.

---

eframe is a very thin crate that re-exports egui andepi with thin wrappers over the backends.

eframe uses egui_web for web and egui_glow for native.

To use on Linux, first run:

sudo apt-get install libxcb-render0-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev libspeechd-dev libxkbcommon-dev libssl-dev

Alternatives

eframe is not the only way to write an app using egui! You can also try egui-miniquad, bevy_egui, egui_sdl2_gl, and others.

Companion crates

Not all rust crates work when compiled to WASM, but here are some useful crates have been designed to work well both natively and as WASM:

• Audio: cpal.
• HTTP client: ehttp.
• Time: chrono.

Name

The frame in eframe stands both for the frame in which your egui app resides and also for "framework" (frame is a framework, egui is a library).
