Introduction

Overview​

This package is where we keep all of the core features of Dara, from allowing you to start your app to creating interactive pages, handling of data and much more!

Please explore the reference section as well as the guides under User Guide to learn about all the different features available.

Getting Started​

Example basic app​

from dara.core import ConfigurationBuilder


# Here we initialize the app config, which uses a Builder pattern to
# build up the app piece by piece.
config = ConfigurationBuilder()

# Here we add a single page to the application, with a title of 'Hello'
# and the text 'World' on the page.
config.add_page('Hello', content='World')
