A hyperscript render engine.

⚡ Fast: blazing fast virtual DOM.
🎯 Tiny: 12.6 KB minified + gzipped.
🎨 Universal: works in browsers, Weex, Node.js, Mini-program, WebGL and could works more container that implement driver specification.
Quick Start
Install the Rax CLI tools to init project:
$ npm install rax-cli -g
$ rax init <YourProjectName>
Start local server to launch project:
$ cd YourProjectName
$ npm run start
Example
JSX DSL
// Hello.jsx
import {createElement, Component} from 'rax';
export default class extends Component {
state = {
name: 'world'
};
onChange = ()=>{
this.setState({
name: 'rax'
});
};
render() {
return (
<view style={styles.hello}>
<text style={styles.title} onClick={this.onChange}>
Hello {this.state.name}
</text>
</view>
);
}
}
const styles = {
hello: {
flexDirection: 'column',
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center'
},
title: {
fontSize: '40px',
textAlign: 'center'
}
};
SFC(Single File Component) DSL
SFC is a Vue-like DSL that will compile to JSX DSL.
<!-- hello.html -->
<template>
<view class="hello">
<text class="title" @click="change">Hello {{name}}</text>
</view>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data: function () {
return {
name: 'world'
}
},
methods: {
change () {
this.name = 'rax';
}
}
}
</script>
<style>
.hello {
flex-direction: column;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
.title {
font-size: 40px;
text-align: center;
}
</style>
// app.js
import {render} from 'rax';
import Hello from './hello';
render(<Hello name="world" />);
Rax Renderers
- 🚥 rax-test-renderer: Rax renderer for snapshot testing.
- 💻 rax-server-renderer: Rax renderer for server-side render.
Compatible with React Components
Usage with Webpack or Babel makes React-based components work with Rax, without any code changes.
Usage with Webpack
Add an alias for react
and react-dom
:
{
// ...
resolve: {
alias: {
'react': 'rax',
'react-dom': 'rax-dom',
// Not necessary unless you consume a module using `createClass`
'create-react-class': "rax/lib/createClass"
}
}
// ...
}
Usage with Babel
Install the babel plugin for aliasing: npm install --save-dev babel-plugin-module-resolver
Add an alias for react
and react-dom
in your .babelrc:
{
// ...
"plugins": [
["module-resolver", {
"root": ["."],
"alias": {
"react": "rax",
"react-dom": "rax-dom",
// Not necessary unless you consume a module using `createClass`
"create-react-class": "rax/lib/createClass"
}
}]
]
// ...
}
Developer Tools
- React Developer Tools: Allow you inspect and modify the state of your Rax components at runtime in Chrome Developer Tools.
- Redux DevTools extension: Provide power-ups for your Redux development workflow.
- Use the
rax-redux
module in your app - Simply replace code follow the Redux DevTools extension usage doc
- Use the

Development Workflow
After cloning rax, run npm install
to fetch its dependencies.
Run npm run setup
link and bootstrap project before development.
Then, you can run several commands:
npm run lint
checks the code style.npm test
runs the complete test suite.npm test -- --watch
runs an interactive test watcher.npm test <pattern>
runs tests with matching filenames.npm run build
createslib
anddist
folder with all the packages.npm start
start local server withexamples
folder.
