Package Announcements

GenieFramework/Stipple has received many improvements in the past, which will be announced separately. Today we announce a new app template that makes webapps

startable via using MyApp with unprecedented startup times of 5-10s from zero to the loaded web page

hostable as packages

hostable with a new Dockerfile that (finally) supports caching of precompilation

Typical rebuild times shrink from typically 10-20 mins down to 1-5 mins.

More details:

Draft for a New Genie Template

Highlights

Largely reduced TTFX: startup time of <10s from zero to the the served page via docker, without sysimage compilation!

New Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml with cached precompilation!

New concept: app as a package, start by no more than using GenieTemplate, can be hosted on a package server

Showcases

self-hosting of Material Icons and Material Symbols of the latest version

no core_theme (if you run into styling problems)

dynamic layout with toolbar and drawer

Status

The purpose of this template is to develop a new App template and perhaps a layout/template gallery. When this template proves to be reasonable stable and performant, we will think about simplifications in code style.

We are thankful for any feedback!
