Fastro

Fast and simple web application framework for deno. With near-native perfomance, you can manage your routing, middlewares, and dependencies cleanly. You can also take advantage of existing Deno objects and methods: Request, Response, Headers, and Cookie.

Examples

Getting started

import application from "https://deno.land/x/fastro@v0.55.0/server/mod.ts"

const app = application()

app.get("/", () => "Hello world")

Server Side Rendering

Component

Create react component: app.tsx

import React from "https://esm.sh/react@17.0.2"

const App = () => {
  const [count, setCount] = React.useState(0)

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>Hello Deno Land!</h1>
      <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>Click the 🦕</button>
      <p>You clicked the 🦕 {count} times</p>
    </div>
  )
}

export default App

SSR Hydration

Create react hydration: hydrate.tsx. See: hydrate.

import React from "https://esm.sh/react@17.0.2"
import ReactDOM from "https://esm.sh/react-dom@17.0.2"
import App from "./app.tsx"

ReactDOM.hydrate(
    <App />,
    //@ts-ignore: used by Deno.emit
    document.getElementById("root")
)

Endpoint

Create routing file: api.tsx

import application, { response } from "https://deno.land/x/fastro@v0.55.0/server/mod.ts"
import App from "./app.tsx"

const app = application()
const hydratePath = "./examples/ssr/hydrate.tsx"

app.get("/", () => {
    return response().ssr(<App />, hydratePath)
})

console.log("Listening on: http://localhost:8000")

await app.serve()

tsconfig: deno.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "strict": true,
    "jsx": "react-jsx",
    "jsxImportSource": "https://esm.sh/react"
  }
}
