- **🔧 Framework Ready**: Drop-in replacement for any HTML generation needs

## Quick Start

### Installation

```bash
pip install rusty-tags
```

### Basic HTML Generation

```python
from rusty_tags import Div, P, H1, A, Button, Input

# Simple HTML elements
content = Div(
    H1("Welcome to RustyTags Core"),
    P("High-performance HTML generation with Rust + Python"),
    A("Learn More", href="https://github.com/ndendic/RustyTags"),
    cls="container"
)
print(content)
# Output:
# <div class="container">
#   <h1>Welcome to RustyTags Core</h1>
#   <p>High-performance HTML generation with Rust + Python</p>
#   <a href="https://github.com/ndendic/RustyTags">Learn More</a>
# </div>
```

### Complete Page Generation

```python
from rusty_tags import Html, Head, Title, Body, Meta, Link
from rusty_tags import Page  # Simple page helper

# Manual HTML structure
page = Html(
    Head(
        Title("My Site"),
        Meta(charset="utf-8"),
        Link(rel="stylesheet", href="/app.css")
    ),
    Body(
        H1("Hello World"),
        P("Built with RustyTags Core")
    )
)

# Or use the simple Page helper
page = Page(
    H1("Hello World"),
    P("Built with RustyTags Core"),
    title="My Site",
    hdrs=(Meta(charset="utf-8"), Link(rel="stylesheet", href="/app.css"))
)
```

### Reactive Components with Complete Datastar Integration

RustyTags Core includes **complete Datastar integration** with both Rust-level processing and Python utilities for high-performance reactive components:

```python
from rusty_tags import Div, Button, P, Input, Page, DS

# Reactive counter with built-in Datastar processing
counter = Div(
    P(text="Count: $count", cls="display"),               # → data-text="$count"
    Button("+1", on_click="$count++", cls="btn"),         # → data-on-click="$count++"
    Button("-1", on_click="$count--", cls="btn"),         # → data-on-click="$count--"
    Button("Reset", on_click="$count = 0", cls="btn"),    # → data-on-click="$count = 0"
    signals={"count": 0},                                 # → data-signals='{"count": 0}'
    cls="counter-widget"
)

# Advanced reactive form with DS utilities
form = Div(
    Input(bind="$name", placeholder="Enter name"),
    Input(bind="$email", placeholder="Enter email"),
    Button(
        "Save User",
        on_click=DS.post("/api/users", data={"name": "$name", "email": "$email"}),
        cls="btn-primary"
    ),
    Button("Load Data", on_click=DS.get("/api/data", target="#results")),
    Div(id="results"),
    signals={"name": "", "email": ""}
)

# Conditional rendering with when/unless utilities
from rusty_tags import when, unless, Fragment

conditional_ui = Div(
    H1("Dashboard"),
    when(user_logged_in, P(f"Welcome, {username}!")),
    unless(is_loading,
        Div(
            Button("Refresh", on_click=DS.get("/api/refresh")),
            P("Data loaded successfully")
        )
    ),
    # Fragment renders children without wrapper
    Fragment(
        P("Multiple elements"),
        P("Without container")
    )
)

# Create a complete page with Datastar CDN
page = Page(
    counter, form,
    title="Reactive App",
    datastar=True  # Automatically includes Datastar CDN
)
```

**Complete Datastar Integration:**
- **Shorthand Attributes**: `signals`, `bind`, `show`, `text`, `on_click` → automatically converted to `data-*`
- **Smart Expression Detection**: `$signals` and `@actions` automatically recognized as JavaScript
- **DS Utilities**: `DS.get()`, `DS.post()`, `DS.set()`, etc. for action generation
- **Conditional Rendering**: `when()` and `unless()` utilities with `Fragment` support
- **Reactive Classes**: `cls={"active": "$isActive"}` for conditional styling
- **Event Handlers**: `on_click`, `on_submit`, etc. → `data-on-*` attributes
- **Type Safety**: Intelligent conversion of Python types to JavaScript equivalents

### SVG Generation

```python
from rusty_tags import Svg, Circle, Rect, Line, Path

# Create SVG graphics
chart = Svg(
    Circle(cx="50", cy="50", r="40", fill="blue"),
    Rect(x="10", y="10", width="30", height="30", fill="red"),
    Line(x1="0", y1="0", x2="100", y2="100", stroke="black"),
    width="200", height="200", viewBox="0 0 200 200"
)
```

## Core Features

### 🏷️ Complete HTML5/SVG Tag System

All standard HTML5 and SVG elements are available as Python functions:

```python
# HTML elements
Html, Head, Body, Title, Meta, Link, Script
H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6, P, Div, Span, A
Form, Input, Button, Select, Textarea, Label
Table, Tr, Td, Th, Tbody, Thead, Tfoot
Nav, Main, Section, Article, Header, Footer
Img, Video, Audio, Canvas, Iframe
# ... and many more

# SVG elements
Svg, Circle, Rect, Line, Path, Polygon
G, Defs, Use, Symbol, LinearGradient
Text, Image, ForeignObject
# ... complete SVG support
```

### ⚡ Performance Optimizations

- **Memory Pooling**: Thread-local string pools and arena allocators minimize allocations
- **Intelligent Caching**: Lock-free attribute processing with smart cache invalidation
- **String Interning**: Common HTML strings pre-allocated for maximum efficiency
- **Type Optimization**: Fast paths for common Python types and HTML patterns

### 🔧 Smart Type System

Intelligent handling of Python types:

```python
# Automatic type conversion
Div(
    42,           # Numbers → strings
    True,         # Booleans → "true"/"false"
    None,         # None → empty string
    [1, 2, 3],    # Lists → joined strings
    custom_obj,   # Objects with __html__(), render(), or _repr_html_()
)

# Dictionary attributes automatically expand
Div("Content", {"id": "main", "class": "container", "hidden": False})
# Renders: <div id="main" class="container">Content</div>

# Framework integration - automatic recognition
class MyComponent:
    def __html__(self):
        return "<div>Custom HTML</div>"

Div(MyComponent())  # Automatically calls __html__()
```

### 🪶 Framework Agnostic

Works with **any** Python web framework:

```python
# FastAPI
from fastapi import FastAPI
from fastapi.responses import HTMLResponse

app = FastAPI()

@app.get("/")
def home():
    return HTMLResponse(str(Page(H1("FastAPI + RustyTags"), title="Home")))

# Flask
from flask import Flask

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/")
def home():
    return str(Page(H1("Flask + RustyTags"), title="Home"))

# Django
from django.http import HttpResponse

def home(request):
    return HttpResponse(str(Page(H1("Django + RustyTags"), title="Home")))
```

### 📓 Jupyter Integration

```python
from rusty_tags import show

# Display directly in Jupyter notebooks
content = Div(H1("Notebook Content"), style="color: blue;")
show(content)  # Renders directly in Jupyter cells
```

## Performance

RustyTags Core delivers significant performance improvements over pure Python:

- **3-10x faster** HTML generation
- **Sub-microsecond** rendering for simple elements
- **Memory efficient** with intelligent pooling
- **Scalable** with lock-free concurrent data structures

```python
# Benchmark example
import timeit
from rusty_tags import Div, P

def generate_content():
    return Div(
        *[P(f"Paragraph {i}") for i in range(1000)],
        cls="container"
    )

# Time the generation
time = timeit.timeit(generate_content, number=1000)
print(f"Generated 1000 pages with 1000 paragraphs each in {time:.3f}s")
```

#### Migration Guide:

**Before v0.6.0 (Monolithic):**
```python
# Old import style - no longer works
from rusty_tags import Div, DS, Client, Accordion
from rusty_tags.events import emit
```

**After v0.6.0 (Enhanced Core):**
```python
# Core HTML generation + complete Datastar (RustyTags)
from rusty_tags import Div, Page, create_template
from rusty_tags import Button, Input, DS, Fragment, when, unless  # All included

# Advanced web framework features (Nitro - separate install)
from nitro import Client, Accordion
from nitro.events import emit
```

**Installation Changes:**
```bash
# Before v0.6.0
pip install rusty-tags  # Included everything

# After v0.6.0
pip install rusty-tags        # Core HTML + complete Datastar integration
pip install nitro             # For advanced web framework features (events, SSE, etc.)
```

**Code Migration Examples:**

1. **Basic HTML Generation** (No changes needed):
```python
# ✅ Works exactly the same
from rusty_tags import Div, H1, P
content = Div(H1("Hello"), P("World"))
```

2. **Basic Datastar** (No changes needed):
```python
# ✅ Works exactly the same - built into Rust core
from rusty_tags import Div, Button
counter = Div(
    Button("+1", on_click="$count++"),
    signals={"count": 0}
)
```

3. **Datastar Utilities** (Now included in core):
```python
# ✅ Works in v0.6.0+ - DS utilities now in core
from rusty_tags import DS, Fragment, when, unless
action = DS.post("/api/submit", data={"name": "$name"})

# Conditional rendering with new utilities
content = Div(
    when(user_logged_in, P("Welcome!")),
    Fragment(P("Multiple"), P("Elements"))
)
```

4. **Page Templates** (Minor changes):
```python
# ✅ Still works in RustyTags Core
from rusty_tags import Page, create_template

# Basic templating stays the same
page = Page(content, title="My App", datastar=True)
template = create_template("My App", datastar=True)

# ❌ Advanced CDN features moved to Nitro
# highlightjs=True, lucide=True parameters now in Nitro
```
