Setting up Tooling
Before we get started, make sure you've followed the Getting Started page on installing the required dependencies.
We will be primarily developing HotDog as web application, but we still recommend setting up the relevant tooling for desktop and mobile development as well.
Checklist
We covered the setup instructions in Getting Started, but first you should verify everything is set up properly:
- Rust is installed
- You have a code editor installed
- The wasm32-unknown-unknown Rust toolchain is installed
- The
dioxus-cliis installed and up-to-date - System-specific dependencies are installed
Verify your setup
Before proceeding, make sure you have the dioxus-cli installed and up-to-date.
Verify the returned version matches this guide (eg 0.6) by running:
dx --version
All the Commands
You can also run dx help which will give you a list of useful commands and some information on how to use dx.
