Subject: [PATCH yew-widget-toolkit v3] widget: add 'div', 'span' and 'italic' helper functions
Date: Tue, 7 Apr 2026 15:09:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260407130919.3451837-1-d.csapak@proxmox.com> (raw)
these are just a simple wrapper around the `Container` widget, but it's
very useful in situations where bare strings are used in a flex layout,
since e.g. a `Row` with multiple children that are all strings won't get
a proper flex layout (since they're not elements)
So instead of writing
```
Row::new()
.with_child(Container::new().with_child("Text1"))
.with_child(Container::new().with_child("Text2"))
```
one can now write
```
Row::new()
.with_child(div("Text1"))
.with_child(div("Text2"))
```
which is much shorter and more readable.
In addition to the `div` helper also add a `span` and `italic` helper,
which correspond to the `<span>` and `<i>` tag respectively.
We have to use the ContainerBuilder trait in the individual functions,
since a global import in this file here would conflict with the
`Properties` derive macro.
To expose these functions, simply make the 'container' module public.
