💡 Features
zikojs UI module adopts a distinctive approach to building and updating user interfaces. It doesn't rely on predefined markup templates. Instead, it leverages a hyperscript-like syntax to dynamically create and update user interfaces.
See More
For instance, consider the following JavaScript code using zikojs:
para=p(
text("hello"),
text("world")
)
.style({
color:"darkblue"
})
.forEach(n=>n.onPtrEnter(e=>{
console.log(e.target.text)
}));
p(...)
- This line creates a paragraph element (<p>) using zikojs. Inside the p() function, we pass in two text() function calls, which create text nodes containing "hello" and "world" respectively. These will be the contents of the paragraph.
.style({...})
- This method sets the style of the paragraph element. In this case, it sets the color to "darkblue".
.forEach(...)
- This method iterates over the two items of the paragraph element. Inside the callback function, it sets up an event listener for the "pointerenter" event on each child element. When the pointer enters any child element, it logs the text content of that element to the console.
[!TIP] To acces the para items you can use Array like syntaxe ,
para[index]
orpara.at(index)
(index can positive or negative integer)
This code snippet produces the equivalent HTML structure:
<p style="color:darkblue">
<span>hello</span>
<span>world</span>
</p>
<script>
para=document.querySelector(p);
[...a.children].forEach(
n=>n.addEventListener("pointerenter",e=>{
console.log(e.target.textContent)
}))
</script>
In summary, zikojs UI module enables dynamic creation and manipulation of user interfaces without relying on static markup templates, offering flexibility and control over UI elements.
You can integrate it inside other frameworks/libraries like React , Vue , Svelte ... To do so, all you need to do is install the ziko-wrapper package.

Ziko.ExtractAll()
// if you want to extract only UI methodes you can use Ziko.UI.Extractll()
🏷️ This method simplifies syntax by extracting all UI, Math, Time, Graphics, and other methods within the Ziko framework. Instead of writing specific namespace prefixes like Ziko.UI.text("Hi")
, Ziko.Math.complex(1,2)
, Ziko.Math.matrix([[1,2],[2,3]])
, you can directly use simplified syntax such as text("Hi")
, complex(1,1)
and matrix([[1,2],[2,3]])
.
It allows multiple methods to be called sequentially on an object, enhancing code readability and conciseness.

Example of creating simple Paint sketch using canvas and pointer events :
Scene=Canvas().size("500px","500px")
Scene.onPtrDown(e=>{
e.target.ctx.beginPath()
e.target.ctx.moveTo(
map(e.dx,0,e.target.element.offsetWidth,e.target.Xmin,e.target.Xmax),
map(e.dy,0,e.target.element.offseHeight,e.target.Ymin,e.target.Ymax)
)
})
Scene.onPtrMove(e=>{
if(e.isDown){
const x=map(e.mx,0,e.target.element.offsetWidth,e.target.axisMatrix[0][0],e.target.axisMatrix[1][0])
const y=map(e.my,0,e.target.element.offsetHeight,e.target.axisMatrix[1][1],e.target.axisMatrix[0][1])
e.target.append(canvasCircle(x,y,1).color({fill:"#5555AA"}).fill())
}})
Scene.onPtrUp(()=>{})
const inp=input().onKeyDown(throttle(e=>console.log(e.kd),1000));
Zikojs has a built-in Single page application router based on history browser api
See More
const main= Ziko.App()
const p1=Section()
const p2=Section()
S=Ziko.SPA(
main,{
"/page1":p1,
"/page2":p2
})
// You can use regex to define routes
S.get(
pattern,
path=>handler(path)
)
💡 Example using expressjs :
app.get('*', (req , res) => {
res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, 'public', 'index.html'));
});
useThread(() => {
s = 0;
for (i = 0; i < 10000000000; i++) s += i;
return s;
}, console.log);
