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.
