Ronel #

Ronel ("Remotely-Operated Native Expression Language") is a simple library and notation framework using HTML-over-the-wire to build native Flutter layouts, created and maintained by Mark Schellhas in 2025.

Features #

Ronel provides a powerful and flexible way to build server-driven UI in Flutter, giving you the speed of web development with the performance of native code.

• Ship at the Speed of the Web, with Native Power
  Leverage your existing web app to accelerate development. Ronel embraces the "HTML-over-the-wire" paradigm, where your server remains the single source of truth for your application's views.

• Choose either single-screen app or tabbed app Easy integration into existing and new apps. Create your new app with Ronel, or start replacing screens incrementally.

• Includes RonelAuth for authenticated experiences A simple RonelAuth widget will take care of web-based auth screens and token handling for authenticated app experiences.

• Example app in /example directory Want to see an example? Check out the /example directory and run the app there.
