wxReactView

wxWidgets component for running React apps in WebView

Why?

wxReactView was created for a client, which originally used React with Electron and the Node.js C++ plugin interface. While this was a workable solution, Electron was operating as a bloated middleware component between the React frontend and core C++ logic. The decision to start from scratch with wxWidgets had its own challenges, mostly related to loading local web content and message passing. This solution is meant to address these challenges.

Due to the flexibility and performance of the wxWidgets solution, our client has given us permission to release this component as a separate project.

This is not meant to be a universal replacement for Electron, but for some use cases, it can provide a useful alternative. By extending the wxWidgets framework, wxReactView provides a solid connection between a commonly used web technology and a feature-rich C++ desktop framework.

Requirements

  • C++17
  • CMake 3.15 or newer
  • npm**

**optional, for building frontend components.

Usage

The recommended toolchain for wxReactView is to use React + Vite. To add a wxReactView app to a CMake project, the following function can be used:

wxreactview_add_executable(<target>FRONTEND<nodejs-source-directory>SOURCES<source-files>
)

To integrate with the C++ code, use the wxReactApp class:

classExampleApp : publicwxReactApp
{
public:virtualboolOnReady() override
{
// this is similar to the OnInit() function provided by wxApp
}
};
wxIMPLEMENT_APP(ExampleApp);

wxReactApp is an extension of wxApp that handles platform specific initialization for the different WebView backends.
