gpui-global

What problem does it solve?

Global state management enables app-wide data to be shared across components and contexts, ensuring consistent configuration and resources without prop-drilling.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Global trait: Implement on types to expose them globally and enable access from anywhere.
• Set, update, and notify: Pattern for mutating global state with controlled reactivity and manual notifications when necessary.
• Best practices: Arc-based sharing, immutability by default, and safe interior mutability for selective updates.
• Use Cases: App configuration, feature flags, and shared services.

Quick Start

Define a global type by deriving Clone and implementing Global, then register it in the GPUI context and access or update it from components.
