Welcome to The Basalt Wiki ​

Welcome to Basalt 2, a complete reimagining of the Basalt UI framework for ComputerCraft. After maintaining the original Basalt, i identified several areas that needed fundamental improvements. This led to the decision to rebuild Basalt from the ground up, focusing on these key aspects:

• Improved error handling to help developers quickly identify and resolve issues
• Auto-generated documentation that stays in sync with the codebase
• IDE support through automatically generated LuaLS annotations
• New ways to access properties

Features ​

• Pre-built Components: Buttons, Lists, Textboxes, and more
• Modern UI: Animations, themes, states, xml
• Event System: Powerful event handling
• Plugin System: Extend Basalt with custom plugins
• Developer Friendly:
  • Type definitions for better IDE support
  • Extensive documentation
  • Minification support

Quick Start ​

local basalt = require("basalt")

-- Create a simple UI
basalt.getMainFrame()
    :addButton()
    :setText("Hello Basalt!")
    :setPosition(5, 5)
    :setSize(14, 3)
    :onClick(function()
        -- Your code here
    end)

basalt.run()

local basalt = require("basalt")

-- Create a simple UI
basalt.getMainFrame()
    :addButton()
    :setText("Hello Basalt!")
    :setPosition(5, 5)
    :setSize(14, 3)
    :onClick(function()
