Core Concepts
State & Vars
- State (
rx.State): Server-side Python class holding app state. Define vars as class attributes and event handlers as methods. - Base Vars: Typed class attributes on State (
count: int = 0) - Computed Vars: Derived values using
@rx.vardecorator - Var Operations: Transform vars in components without event handlers
Components
- All UI is built with
rx.*components (Python wrappers around React) - Components accept props and can be composed/nested
- Conditional rendering with
rx.cond(), iteration withrx.foreach()
Events
- Event Handlers: Methods on State decorated with
@rx.event - Event Triggers: Component props like
on_click,on_change - Event Chaining: Return multiple events from a handler
- Setters: Auto-generated
set_<var>event handlers for each base var
Pages & Routing
- Pages are functions decorated with
rx.pageor added viaapp.add_page() - Dynamic routes with bracket syntax:
[slug]
Styling
- Inline props, Tailwind CSS, theming, responsive design
rx.theme()for global theming
Database
- Built-in SQLModel integration for database tables
- Define models, run queries, set up relationships
