gpui-action

What problem does it solve?

GPUI action definitions and keyboard shortcuts provide a unified approach to declare actions and bind keys, enabling consistent, accessible, and keyboard-driven interfaces across GPUI components.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Declarative actions via actions! macro or derive(Action)
• Context-aware key bindings with cx.bind_keys()
• Per-element action handlers via .on_action() and focus-based routing
• Use Case: Build a text editor-like GPUI app with global shortcuts and contextual bindings

Quick Start

Define actions with actions! macro in your component, bind keys to those actions using KeyBinding, and implement on_action handlers to respond to input. For example, bind "up" and "down" to navigation actions within a context and implement corresponding handlers.
