Object props never worked in generated demos, and my two earlier attempts each
traded one failure for another:
- a bare {...} attribute is read by the compiler as an interpolation, so it
parsed JSON as JavaScript and the page 500ed
- parenthesising it compiled, but prop coercion runs JSON.parse on the raw
attribute, so ({...}) threw and every demo rendered empty and silent
- entity-escaping the braces did not help either: the compiler hands the
attribute over without decoding, so JSON.parse still failed
They are now hoisted into page state and bound, which is what the playground
has always done. The state initialiser uses JSON.parse rather than an object
literal because the parser reads a leading brace as the start of a block.
Navbar gains a real profile: a brand, links, a two-column dropdown panel and
calls to action, instead of the generic scaffold samples that made every demo
look identical and showed no dropdown at all.
MegaMenu closed while the pointer travelled to it. The panel sits below the
trigger and that offset belongs to neither element, so crossing it fired
mouseleave on the root. A descendant now covers the gap.
Scrollspy could not be exercised at all: its links pointed at ids that did not
exist on the page. The demo now ships real sections, in page flow because the
runtime observes against the viewport.

WRNexusJS
WRNexusJS is a compiler-driven, SSR-first, Bun-native full-stack framework for building secure, fast, maintainable applications with .wrn pages, layouts, components, stores, server functions, client functions, typed outputs, APIs, validation, authentication, realtime rooms, and production tooling.
Current framework version: 0.8.0
Core principles
- Secure by default with CSP, CSRF, safe serialization, URL policies, request limits, SSRF protection, secret scanning, and release gates.
- Performance-first SSR with zero framework JavaScript for static pages and selective hydration for interactive pages.
- One compiler-understood
.wrnmodel for markup, props, state, outputs, and runtime-specific functions. - Backward-compatible package upgrades with migrations, generated references, validation scripts, and private publishing controls.
- Package kits that give developers public helpers, package tests, documentation, and complete UI blocks where a package has a developer-facing interface.
Quick start
bun install
bun run validate:0.8
bun run check
bun run dev
Create or upgrade a project:
bunx @wrnexus/cli@0.8.0 create my-app
bunx @wrnexus/cli@0.8.0 update --version=0.8.0 --report
Package kits in 0.8
All 39 framework packages expose a documented helper/API surface and package tests. UI-facing packages additionally own complete .wrn blocks composed from @wrnexus/ui:
@wrnexus/auth— complete account, sign-in, sign-up, MFA, passkey, recovery, device, provider, and security blocks.@wrnexus/captcha— challenge, field, status, extraction, verification, response, and context helpers.@wrnexus/i18n— recursive locale loading, fallback chains, request resolution, SSR/browser translations, language controls, and formatters.@wrnexus/image— responsive picture plans, secure loaders, placeholders, preload hints, audits, and image blocks.@wrnexus/realtime— typed messages, room connections, presence, typing, metadata, composer, status, and message blocks.@wrnexus/uploader— upload attributes, result validation, formatting, dropzone, and status blocks.@wrnexus/validation— parse/throw helpers, consistent error responses, summaries, and field errors.@wrnexus/ui— the complete shared design-system component catalog.
Infrastructure packages remain helper/API-only so database, encryption, security, compiler, server, and build packages do not pull browser UI into production server code.
Security note for encrypted HTTP bodies
@wrnexus/encryption supports authenticated application-layer request and response envelopes with method, path, request-ID, timestamp, expiry, key-rotation, body-size, and replay binding.
This feature does not replace HTTPS. It is appropriate for service-to-service calls, native/mobile clients, controlled agents, or selected fields with server-managed keys. It cannot hide data from an end user when a browser receives the decryption key.
