5`llimphi` is a sovereign, retained-mode UI framework with an Elm-style loop (`input → update → view → layout → raster → present`). Declarative pipeline over `vello` + `wgpu` + `taffy` + `parley`, with `Dark/Light/Aurora/Sunset` themes and a multi-platform HAL (Wayland · X11 · Win32 · Android · Wawa bare-metal). It powers a full Rust application suite; this repository is the framework extracted to stand on its own.

17## Quick start
18
19```sh
20git clone https://gitea.gioser.net/sergio/llimphi.git
21cd llimphi
22cargo run -p llimphi-ui --example counter   # ~124 LOC: the full Elm loop on screen
23```
24
25## Install
26
27```toml
28[dependencies]
29llimphi-ui    = { git = "https://gitea.gioser.net/sergio/llimphi.git" }
30llimphi-theme = { git = "https://gitea.gioser.net/sergio/llimphi.git" }
31# widgets are one crate each — pull only what you use:
32llimphi-widget-button = { git = "https://gitea.gioser.net/sergio/llimphi.git" }

35## Compatibility
36
37- **Linux/Wayland** — primary backend.
38- **Linux/X11** — via XWayland.
39- **macOS / Windows** — `winit` + `wgpu`.
40- **Android** — HAL via `android` crates.
41- **Wawa bare-metal** — alternative framebuffer HAL.
42
43Crates listed in [README.md](README.md) (framework, widgets, modules, android).
44
45## Considerations
46
47- **Single API: declarative `View<Msg>`.** No imperative, no foreign vDOM.
48- **Same scene tree on Wayland and Wawa**: HAL abstracts the surface.
49- Widgets are **purely visual**; modules encapsulate state + behavior.

llimphi

Native UI framework: HAL · raster · layout · text · theme · ui — plus widgets and modules.

llimphi is a sovereign, retained-mode UI framework with an Elm-style loop (input → update → view → layout → raster → present). Declarative pipeline over vello + wgpu + taffy + parley, with Dark/Light/Aurora/Sunset themes and a multi-platform HAL (Wayland · X11 · Win32 · Android · Wawa bare-metal). It powers a full Rust application suite; this repository is the framework extracted to stand on its own.
