You can use the native components such as UICollectionView and UICollectionViewCell on iOS. This gives your app a consistent look and feel with the rest of the platform ecosystem, and keeps the quality bar high. These components are easily incorporated into your app using <UICollectionView/> and <UICollectionViewCell/> directly.
<html>
<body>
<UICollectionView class="list" is-vertical>
<UICollectionViewCell is-static is-row>
...
</UICollectionViewCell>
</UICollectionView>
</body>
</html>You can use the standard HTML tags such as div and img on iOS. This gives you ability to define your user interface using a hybrid way.
<html>
<body>
<UICollectionViewCell is-static is-row>
<div class="profile-wrapper">
<div class="profile-attribution">
<div class="profile-segment no-wrap">
<div class="segment-wrapper">
<span class="segment-count">10,875</span>
<span class="segment-suffix">Followers</span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="profile-segment no-wrap">
<div class="segment-wrapper">
<span class="segment-count">199</span>
<span class="segment-suffix">Followers</span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</UICollectionViewCell>
</body>
</html>We brought the css layout model from the web to samurai-native, css layout makes it simple to build the most common UI layouts, such as stacked and nested boxes with margin and padding. samurai-native also supports common web styles, such as font-weight and border-radius, and you can extend your style in SamuraiHtmlRenderStyle class.

@endsamurai-native provide a high level event system called Signal, you can interact (gesture) with HTML page through signal system.
<div onclick="signal('hello')">
Click here
</div>
<div onswipe-left="signal('next')" onswipe-right="signal('prev')">
Swipe left or right
</div>@implementation MyViewController
handleSignal( hello )
{
[self something];
}
handleSignal( prev )
{
[self something];
}
handleSignal( next )
{
[self something];
}
@endsamurai-native provide a efficient way to binding native objects to HTML page in single way through DOM's name property.
<html>
<body>
...
<div name="author">
<img name="avatar"/>
<div>
<div name="title"/>
<div>by <span name="name"/></div>
</div>
</div>
...
</body>
</html>@implementation MyViewController
...
- (void)reloadData
{
self[@"author"] = @{
@"avatar" : "xxx.jpg",
@"title" : @"Hello",
@"name" : @"World"
};
}
@end
samurai-native is designed to be easily extended with custom native components, that means you can reuse anything you've already built, and can import and use your favorite native components.
@implementation UILabel(Html)
- (void)html_applyDom:(SamuraiHtmlDomNode *)dom
{
[super html_applyDom:dom];
self.text = [dom computeInnerText];
}
- (void)html_applyStyle:(SamuraiHtmlRenderStyle *)style
{
[super html_applyStyle:style];
self.font = [style computeFont:self.font];
self.textColor = [style computeColor:self.textColor];
self.textAlignment = [style computeTextAlignment:self.textAlignment];
self.baselineAdjustment = [style computeBaselineAdjustment:self.baselineAdjustment];
self.lineBreakMode = [style computeLineBreakMode:self.lineBreakMode];
self.numberOfLines = 0;
...
}
