This is pre-alpha software.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Features
 | 
						|
- Very fast: performance of C on the web.
 | 
						|
- Small binary: hello world website is <100 KB.
 | 
						|
- Easy to deploy: just one binary file that also includes all templates.
 | 
						|
  No need to install any dependencies.
 | 
						|
- Templates are precompiled, all errors are visible at compilation time,
 | 
						|
  not at runtime.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Lots of things are broken and not implemented yet in V and vweb.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
There's no documentation yet, have a look at a simple example:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
https://github.com/vlang/v/tree/master/examples/vweb/vweb_example.v
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
There's also the V forum: https://github.com/vlang/vorum
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`vorum.v` contains all GET and POST actions.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```v ignore
 | 
						|
pub fn (app mut App) index() {
 | 
						|
	posts := app.find_all_posts()
 | 
						|
	$vweb.html()
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
// TODO ['/post/:id/:title']
 | 
						|
// TODO `fn (app App) post(id int)`
 | 
						|
pub fn (app App) post() {
 | 
						|
	id := app.get_post_id()
 | 
						|
	post := app.retrieve_post(id) or {
 | 
						|
		app.redirect('/')
 | 
						|
		return
 | 
						|
	}
 | 
						|
	comments := app.find_comments(id)
 | 
						|
	show_form := true
 | 
						|
	$vweb.html()
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`index.html` is an example of the V template language:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```html
 | 
						|
@for post in posts
 | 
						|
	<div class=post>
 | 
						|
		<a class=topic href="@post.url">@post.title</a>
 | 
						|
		<img class=comment-img>
 | 
						|
		<span class=nr-comments>@post.nr_comments</span>
 | 
						|
		<span class=time>@post.time</span>
 | 
						|
	</div>
 | 
						|
@end
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`$vweb.html()` compiles an HTML template into V during compilation,
 | 
						|
and embeds the resulting code in current action.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
That means that the template automatically has access to that action's entire environment.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Deploying vweb apps
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Everything, including HTML templates, is in one binary file. That's all you need to deploy.
