Welcome to Reflex!

This is the base Reflex template - installed when you run reflex init.

If you want to use a different template, pass the --template flag to reflex init. For example, if you want a more basic starting point, you can run:

reflex init --template blank

Adding Pages

In this template, the pages in your app are defined in {your_app}/pages/. Each page is a function that returns a Reflex component. For example, to edit this page you can modify {your_app}/pages/index.py. See the pages docs for more information on pages.

In this template, instead of using rx.add_page or the @rx.page decorator, we use the @template decorator from {your_app}/templates/template.py.

To add a new page:

1. Add a new file in {your_app}/pages/. We recommend using one file per page, but you can also group pages in a single file.
2. Add a new function with the @template decorator, which takes the same arguments as @rx.page.
3. Import the page in your {your_app}/pages/__init__.py file and it will automatically be added to the app.

Adding Components

In order to keep your code organized, we recommend putting components that are used across multiple pages in the {your_app}/components/ directory.

In this template, we have a sidebar component in {your_app}/components/sidebar.py.

Adding State

As your app grows, we recommend using substates to organize your state.

You can either define substates in their own files, or if the state is specific to a page, you can define it in the page file itself.
