What problem does it solve?

Robius state management patterns deliver a structured approach to building reliable, persistent, and scalable app state in Makepad applications.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Centralized AppState design: define a single source of truth for UI state and persistence.
  • Scope data propagation: use Scope::with_data to safely share state across the widget tree.
  • Lifecycle & persistence patterns: pattern catalog for global state, per-item state, and theme switching.
  • Per-user persistence guidance: organize persistent data by user and handle graceful load/fallback.

Quick Start

Define a central AppState struct, wrap it with Scope::with_data when wiring your UI, and hook up per-user load/save persistence.

FAQPage Schema
How do I manage and persist Makepad app state across sessions?

To manage and persist Makepad app state across sessions, define a central AppState struct and use persistence helpers for safe deserialization from per-user state directories, ensuring reliable state restoration upon app restarts.

What is the best way to share state across a Makepad widget tree?

The best way to share state across a Makepad widget tree is using Scope::with_data. This construct safely propagates AppState through scopes, allowing multi-component UIs to access the centralized state source during complex widget lifecycles.

How do I handle theme persistence and global state in Makepad applications?

Handling theme persistence in Makepad requires applying lifecycle pattern catalogs for global state and theme switching. You define a single source of truth in AppState and hook up per-user load and save fallback logic to maintain configurations.

Does Robius state management support complex widget lifecycles in Makepad?

Yes, Robius state management is designed for apps with complex widget lifecycles and multi-component UIs. It provides structured patterns to ensure AppState propagates safely through scopes and handles state persistence effectively across restarts.

How do I organize persistent Makepad app data by user?

To organize persistent Makepad app data by user, apply per-user persistence guidance to structure data directories correctly. Implement graceful load and fallback mechanisms to ensure safe deserialization when user-specific state files are accessed.
