Yujin

Yujin is an experiment to create a front-end for the Many protocol using only browser-native APIs, i.e. zero dependencies or JavaScript bundlers.

We accomplish this task by having a Service Worker intercept all requests with the X-Many-Request header and handling the encoding and decoding of CBOR within a Rust-based WebAssembly module.

Getting Started

You'll need wasm-pack to get started.

% cargo install wasm-pack

And then you can build the project.

% wasm-pack build --target web --dev

The web target will build the Wasm ready to import into a browser. The dev flag will send any Rust panics to your browser's console.

Then serve the project directory locally (with http-server or something).

Usage

Currently, the front-end sends a precomputed CBOR payload to the server URL in the HTML form. Future versions will encode the form inputs into CBOR, encode the request, decode the response, and format it for consumption by the front-end.
