Percy: Isomorphic Web Apps with Rust + WebAssembly
summary
Percy is a Rust toolkit that actually compiles to WebAssembly and supports serverside rendering with initial State JSON for client rehydration. It generates UI from an HTML macro into a virtual DOM diff producing patch vectors that apply concrete DOM mutations via wasm-bindgen, uses wasm-bindgen-test to run real-browser tests, and provides a CSS macro that emits classes into a file at compile time. Router type checks path parameters to u32/string, the demo compiles and runs in-browser but the author flags some parts as still experimental and a bit verbose.
