Fork of Blank Slate
✓ Published0🌍 Public
This example demonstrates a minimal “Hello World” visualization built for the VizHub V3 Runtime Environment, rendering large text centered in a container using vanilla JavaScript and inline HTML styling. The code shows the required `main` export that receives a `container` DIV, whose `clientWidth` and `clientHeight` define the drawing area, and it uses immutable state management via `setState` for future interactivity. It serves as a blank template for creating more complex dashboards or interactive graphics.
AI-generated descriptionA blank slate starting point showing the "Hello World" for the VizHub V3 Runtime Environment, which supports continuous hot reloading with interactive widgets.
- There is no
index.html- that's what triggers the V3 Runtime - The entry point is the
mainfunction exported fromindex.js - The
mainfunction takes an argumentcontainer, a DIV that has measurable dimensions usingclientWidthandclientHeight - The second argument to
mainis an options object containingstateandsetState. - The state of the application is stored in
state, which is initialized as an empty object{}. - The
setStatefunction can be called with a function that uses the previous state to create a new state object using immutable update patterns. - For an interactive example, see Mouse Follower.
