1. Introduction#
We’re going to build a poll app. You’ll start with plain HTML and gradually add dynamic features with Bialet.
The app has two pages:
A vote page with a form to cast your vote
A results page showing vote counts and percentages
The HTML is built with Flowbite and Tailwind CSS. Download the starting files:
Your project can include JavaScript, CSS, images — anything a regular HTML project would have. Bialet serves static files alongside your Wren pages.
Throughout this tutorial you’ll run the app with bialet dev, Bialet’s
development mode. It enables the in-browser error display and live reload from
the start, so a mistake in your code shows up in the browser instead of a
generic error page, and file changes reload automatically. You’ll set it up in
the next chapter.
In the next chapter, we’ll set up Bialet and get a development server running.
