stdweb – standard library for the client-side Web

stdweb is a standard library for the client-side Web.

The goal of this crate is to provide Rust bindings to the Web APIs and to allow a high degree of interoperability between Rust and JavaScript.

This is free and open source software.

The goals in more detail:

  • Expose a full suite of Web APIs as exposed by web browsers.
  • Try to follow the original JavaScript conventions and structure as much as possible, except in cases where doing otherwise results in a clearly superior design.
  • Be a building block from which higher level frameworks and libraries can be built.
  • Make it convenient and easy to embed JavaScript code directly into Rust and to marshal data between the two.
  • Integrate with the wider Rust ecosystem, e.g. support marshalling of structs which implement serde’s Serializable.
  • Put Rust in the driver’s seat where a non-trivial Web application can be written without touching JavaScript at all.
  • Allow Rust to take part in the upcoming WebAssembly (re)volution.
  • Make it possible to trivially create standalone libraries which are easily callable from JavaScript.
