Ftr #

Ftr is a cross-platform (Android/iOS) front-end development framework. The core code is written in C++. The bottom layer is based on OpenGL drawing. The upper layer implements a streamlined typesetting engine and a JS/JSX running environment. The goal is to develop GUI applications on this basis, which can take both development speed and operation efficiency into account.

• Only iOS and Android systems are supported for the time being, this does not include AndroidTV, because TV applications are very different from mobile applications

• From here, Go API Index can go to API Documents Index

Simple Examples #

This is a simple program to display Hello world on the screen

import { GUIApplication, Root } from 'ftr'
new GUIApplication().start(
    <Root>hello world!</Root>
)

You can get a more detailed Examples

Start Usage #

If you've never used Ftr before, you can start from here and build your Ftr program step by step.

Install ftrp #

First, you need to install the toolkit provided by Ftr

• Install ftrp using nodejs npm

• Open Terminal and execute the following command：

# shell
$ sudo npm install -g ftrp

• Running ftrp requires dependency on nodejs and python2.7

• And now do not support the windows system, you need to use it under mac

Create new project #

Create a new Ftr project using the following shell command：

# shell
$ mkdir myproject
$ cd myproject
$ ftrp init

Build project #

This step compresses and packages the JavaScript code and resource files inside the project, If this is a new project, you can skip this step and go directly to the next step

# shell
$ ftrp build

Export project #

This step exports Xcode or Android Studio project，because you eventually publish the program that be a .apk or .ipa

# shell
# export xcode ios project
$ ftrp export ios
# export android studio project
$ ftrp export android

After exporting the project, next you can open it using Xcode and Android Studio

Ftr test http server #

ftrp provides a test http server, each time you change the js or jsx code, you don't have to reinstall every time.

Execute the following code to start it：

# shell
$ ftrp
