examples/web-todomvc works great, but having no doc / readme is not beginner friendly #2

Hi! This crate is great, ! I'm used to GTK (C) and iced (Rust) ; but what a refreshing way to build retained mode apps (not everyone needs immediate mode) I easily managed to build web-todomvc because I'm used to run wasm-pack (with Yew), so it's as simple as

$ wasm-pack build --target web
$ miniserve.exe . -p 8080

# browse to localhost:8080

But complete beginners might not even know where to start, and that will lose you potential adopters.

A README.md or a short bash script may help.

THANK YOU I'm gonna follow your work, I have a gut feeling that way of doing everything async for UI is going to make it big like tokio/hyper/axum is doing for http servers. Nobody ever wants to go back to synchronous code after having being in touch with nice async frameworks.

Hi @olivier-fs ,

Thanks for the example snippet. I'm a 'complete beginner'. How about send a pull request adding the above info to README.md. He's likely to accept the PR.

retained mode apps (not everyone needs immediate mode

Can you please send send some good reading/links, so I can learn retained/immediate concepts?

I wish someone adds example for oauth2 like login/auth (say with google auth), and mae some webservice calls for say weather-service, update the UI/tables etc -- with parent child views. That would help with quicker adaptation by newbies like me, that learn by example.

Thanks

Hi! Yes documentation pull requests would be really welcomed. I've been pretty busy with university :(

@anborg The library is still pretty bare-bone. No tables yet. For authentication, the hackernews example uses surf to perform REST API requests, you might want to check that out!
