## What it is
Yew is a Rust framework for building client-side web applications compiled to WebAssembly. It offers a React-like component model with an html! macro (JSX-style), virtual DOM rendering, server-side rendering, and JavaScript interoperability.

## Use cases
- build a frontend web app in Rust with WebAssembly
- React-style component framework for Rust developers
- write SPA with server-side rendering in Rust
- offload heavy computation to web workers in the browser
- use NPM packages from a Rust web app
- create interactive UIs with a JSX-like html macro

## When to choose
- you know Rust and want a type-safe alternative to JavaScript frameworks
- you want React/Elm-style components with WebAssembly performance
- you need SSR plus SPA behavior in a Rust stack
- you want to reuse existing NPM/JS ecosystem from Rust

## When to avoid
- your team is JavaScript/TypeScript-focused with no Rust experience
- you need a mature ecosystem of ready-made UI component libraries
- small sites where plain HTML/JS or a lighter tool suffices
- you need very fast iteration; Rust/Wasm compile cycles are slower

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
- maturity: active
- function: frontend-framework, web-framework, ssr, state-management, templating
- domain: web-development, frontend, cross-platform
- platform: wasm, browser, rust
- tags: rust, webassembly, jsx-like-macro, vdom, react-alternative, elm-architecture, web-workers, javascript-interop, trunk, web-server
