Leptos Starter Template

This is a template for use with the Leptos web framework and the cargo-leptos tool.

Creating your template repo

If you don't have cargo-leptos installed you can install it with

cargo install --locked cargo-leptos

Then run

cargo leptos new --git https://github.com/leptos-rs/start

to generate a new project template.

cd {projectname}

to go to your newly created project.

Of course you should explore around the project structure, but the best place to start with your application code is in src/app/mod.rs.

Running your project

cargo leptos watch

Installing Additional Tools

By default, cargo-leptos uses nightly Rust, cargo-generate, and sass. If you run into any trouble, you may need to install one or more of these tools.

1. rustup toolchain install nightly --allow-downgrade - make sure you have Rust nightly
2. rustup default nightly - setup nightly as default, or you can use rust-toolchain file later on
3. rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown - add the ability to compile Rust to WebAssembly
4. cargo install cargo-generate - install cargo-generate binary (should be installed automatically in future)
5. npm install -g sass - install dart-sass (should be optional in future
