vdom 0.5

# [VDOM](https://github.com/nteract/vdom)

## Why use VDOM?

- Write **Declarative** Pythonic layouts.
- Render the layout in Jupyter frontends.
- Serialize layout for rehydration in your web app.

:warning: This library is a work in progress. :warning:

## Check out the power of VDOM!

Start with Python code and run it:

```python
from IPython.display import display
from vdom.helpers import h1, p, img, div, b

display(
div(
h1('Our Incredibly Declarative Example'),
p('Can you believe we wrote this ', b('in Python'), '?'),
img(src="https://media.giphy.com/media/xUPGcguWZHRC2HyBRS/giphy.gif"),
p('What will ', b('you'), ' create next?'),
)
)
```

**Voila!** Your layout is served below:

# Now Incredibly Declarative

Can you believe we wrote this **in Python**?


What will **you** create next?
