Question 1

How do I deploy a Create Yew App project to production?

Accepted Answer

Run `trunk build` to generate optimized files in the `dist` folder, then deploy those static assets to hosting services like GitHub Pages or Netlify. The hashed filenames help with cache management.

Question 2

Create Yew App vs manual Yew setup: which is better for learning?

Accepted Answer

Create Yew App is faster for beginners to start coding immediately, but manual setup teaches more about Rust tooling and configuration. For quick prototypes, the scaffold is ideal.

Question 3

Can I use Create Yew App without Node.js?

Accepted Answer

No, the scaffolding tool requires Node.js to run, though the generated Rust app itself doesn't depend on Node.js at runtime. You need it only for the initial creation command.

Question 4

How to add a new component in a Create Yew App project?

Accepted Answer

Create a Rust file in the `src/components` directory, define your component, and update `mod.rs` to export it. Trunk will hot-reload changes during development.

Question 5

What's the performance like for Yew apps made with this tool?

Accepted Answer

Yew compiles to efficient WebAssembly, and Create Yew App optimizes builds with minification. Initial load times might be higher due to Wasm download compared to lightweight JavaScript frameworks.

Question 6

Is Create Yew App good for large-scale applications?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the structure scales, but you'll need to manage state and routing manually as Yew's ecosystem is less mature than frameworks like React, potentially requiring more custom code.
