The Gloo team is happy to announce a new addition to the Gloo crates family: gloo-net. It is an HTTP requests library built specially for WASM apps and provides idiomatic Rust bindings for the fetch and WebSocket API. This has been a long requested library, and it has finally arrived.

Features​

  • HTTP: complete wrappers around the browser's fetch API.
  • WebSocket: complete wrappers around the browser's WebSocket API using Rust futures.

We have plans to also provide wrapper for XMLHttpRequest in the future.

Looking for contributors​

Gloo project is in need of contributors. It would be really appreciated if you could contribute or raise awareness about the Gloo project.
