What is UNI?
UNI, pronounced as “you ni,” is a unified framework for developing all front-end applications using Vue.js. It allows developers to write a single codebase that can be published across multiple platforms, including iOS, Android, Web (responsive), and various mini-programs and quick applications. This ensures seamless operation and an excellent user experience across all platforms.
UNI is built on top of Vue.js and provides a complete Vue.js development experience. Its component specifications and extended APIs are largely similar to those of WeChat mini-programs, making it easy for developers with experience in Vue.js and WeChat mini-program development to quickly get up to speed with UNI. The framework also offers conditional compilation optimization, allowing developers to write platform-specific code and utilize specialized capabilities without affecting other platforms. When packaged into an app, UNI still uses the 5 engine, providing access to all of its capabilities and delivering performance and experience similar to that of WeChat mini-programs on the App platform.
Benefits for Developers and Companies
For developers, UNI simplifies the process of learning multiple platform development technologies and studying various front-end frameworks. With UNI, developers can focus on Vue.js and UNI alone, which can significantly reduce the learning curve and time required to develop cross-platform applications. For companies, UNI offers a cost-effective solution to reach a wider audience and is an efficient tool for building applications that work seamlessly across multiple platforms.
UNI in Action
For developers looking to experience UNI’s components, interfaces, and templates, DCloud has released the Hello UNI-App demo program, which is open-source and available on GitHub. Hello UNI-App demonstrates a single codebase that is simultaneously published to iOS, Android, H5, WeChat mini-program Studio, Baidu Developer Tools, ByteDance Developer Tools, QQ Developer Tools, and other terminal simulators.
