Porting to ESP-idf

Hallo everyone,
have anyone tried to port this library to esp idf ? maybe we can help each other instead of starting from zero !
Not to my knowledge.
I intend to play around with the IDF at some point but I haven’t so far. It shouldn’t be too hard to port this library, but the main thing would be our dependence on the Async web socket library.
I made a mostly working ( good enough for my purposes ) port to esp-idf. As well as removing the dependency on ESPAsyncWebServer there is Strings and ArduinoJson to handle. The code I have isn't suitable for a general use case, but if someone wants it as a starting point I can share it.
The latest changes I made use the latest IDF in my test builds. You do need to play with the LittleFS titles a bit but beyond that it works.
Hi, The latest IDF seems to support Async web. Can we use this implementation scheme for this UI framework?

ESPUI already uses an async web server implementation. Are you asking if we can change the library to the idf supported version? Is there an upside / advantage to making this change?
Yes, some friends prefer to use C language for development under the IDF framework instead of the Arduino framework. If this UI framework can be used under IDF, some web-based solutions can be used for rapid integration development.
