plexi-sdk

Python SDK v3 for building Plexi apps running inside the CPython-in-WASM runtime.

Full design spec: SDK_V3.md

Install For SDK Development

uv pip install -e ./sdk/python

Changes to sdk/python/plexi_sdk/ take effect immediately.

App Pattern

An app is three module-level functions:

from plexi_sdk import state
from plexi_sdk.effects import SetTitle, SetState
from plexi_sdk.events import KeyEvent
from plexi_sdk.ui import Column, AppBar, Text, FooterKeys


def init(size, args):
    return [SetTitle("Counter"), SetState({"count": 0})]


def update(event):
    if isinstance(event, KeyEvent) and event.key == "plus" and event.pressed:
        return [SetState({"count": state.get("count", 0) + 1})]
    return []


def view():
    return Column([
        AppBar("Counter"),
        Text(str(state.get("count", 0)), bold=True, align="center"),
        FooterKeys([("+", "increment")]),
    ], grow=True)

SetState is process-local runtime state. Use PersistState when a key must survive app restart.

Games and animations should return SetSchedulerMode("continuous", fps=60) from init() and update runtime state from RenderFrame events. Do not build animation loops with timers.

Keyboard Conventions

Keys arrive in update(event) as KeyEvent. Key strings are lowercase canonical.

Physical key event.key
Enter / Return "return"
Escape "escape"
Backspace "backspace"
Space "space"
Arrow keys "up" / "down" / "left" / "right"

New App

plexi app init myapp

Generates myapp/main.py + myapp/manifest.toml with python_compat = true.
