Macroid — a Scala GUI DSL for Android

Macroid is a modular functional user interface creation language for Android, implemented with Scala macros.

Striving to be focused on one thing (GUI), Macroid promotes composability and high-level abstractions.

Prerequisites: Scala 2.10.x or 2.11.x, Android API 19+.

Latest version: 2.1.0

Snapshot version: 2.1.0-SNAPSHOT

License: MIT.

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  aar("org.macroid" %% "macroid" % "2.1.0")

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  aar("org.macroid" %% "macroid" % "2.1.0-SNAPSHOT")

All contributions are welcome (and encouraged)!

Commit messages

Macroid’s commit message structure is inspired by the Spray project. The message has the following format:

[=|+|!] [core|viewable|akka|docs|all]: <Actual message>.
  • = means there are no API changes
  • + means added functionality
  • ! means breaking changes (source or binary)

Example:

! core: Receive UI actions in mapUi & co (fix #48)

mapUi, flatMapUi, ... now operate on UI actions, rather than simple thunks.
For example, the new type signature for mapUi is (A ⇒ Ui[B]) ⇒ Future[B].

Following this convention greatly simplifies writing the changelogs.

Documentation

Although this is not crucial, updating the docs under macroid-docs together with the code changes might save some time in the future, and thus is highly appreciated. It can be done in the same commit.
