Introduction

Whack is an open-source, multi-media platform designed for the Rust language, used for creating rich graphical experiences.

License

While Whack is open-source with the very permissive Apache 2.0 license, it relies on a library with a slightly less permissive public license, so ensure your Whack application is distributed in compliance with their license.

Performance

Whack aims to be faster than Progressive Web Applications – which are typically implemented using HTML5, TypeScript and reactive frameworks like React.js. HTML5 applications are well-known for consuming significant RAM memory and high CPU usage. Whack apps are faster than apps made using technologies like Electron, Tauri and Cordova.

Flexibility

Whack supports a Cascading Style Sheet 3 subset, reactive user interfaces and a complex graphical display model.
