iced-plus

Batteries included for iced.

Production-ready design tokens, layouts, components, and platform APIs that turn iced into a complete desktop framework. Ship polished apps faster with 30+ pre-built widgets, consistent theming, and cross-platform system integration.

Features

• Design Tokens: Tailwind/Chakra-inspired design tokens with preset light/dark themes
• Theme Bridge: Adapters that wire tokens into iced Theme + widget StyleSheets
• Layouts: Shells, split panes, stacks (HStack/VStack), overlay managers, and responsive rules
• Components: 30+ pre-built widgets including buttons, inputs, cards, modals, tabs, and more
• Platform Integration: Unified APIs for system tray, notifications, hotkeys, and window management

Installation

Add to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
iced_plus = "0.1"

Or pick individual crates:

[dependencies]
iced_plus_tokens = "0.1"      # Design tokens only
iced_plus_theme = "0.1"       # Theme bridge
iced_plus_layouts = "0.1"     # Layout primitives
iced_plus_components = "0.1"  # UI components
iced_plus_platform = "0.1"    # Desktop platform APIs

Quick Start

use iced_plus::prelude::*;

// Use design tokens for consistent styling
let theme = Theme::light();

// Build layouts with stacks
let content = VStack::new()
    .push(Button::primary("Click me"))
    .push(TextInput::new("Enter text..."))
    .spacing(Spacing::md());

Feature Status

Feature	Status	Notes
Design Tokens	Stable	Full token system with light/dark presets
Theme Bridge	Stable	Adapts tokens to iced styling
Layouts	Stable	HStack, VStack, AppShell, Split, Responsive
Core Components	Stable	Button, Text, Input, Card, Badge, etc.
Audio Controls UI	Stable	UI controls only
Video Controls UI	Stable	Audio controls + fullscreen button
Audio/Video Player	Not Implemented	UI only - requires manual backend integration (see rodio example)
Audio/Video Recorder	Experimental	UI ready, needs platform mic/camera integration
WebView	Experimental	System browser works, embedded needs wry feature
System Tray	Stable	Cross-platform tray icon and menu
Notifications	Stable	Native OS notifications
Hotkeys	Stable	Global hotkey registration

Note: Audio and video playback is not built-in. The library provides UI controls and state management, but actual media playback must be integrated manually using libraries like rodio for audio. See the kitchen sink example for reference implementations.
