README.md

Welcome to Your New Wails3 Project!

Congratulations on generating your Wails3 application! This README will guide you through the next steps to get your project up and running.

Getting Started

Navigate to your project directory in the terminal.
To run your application in development mode, use the following command:
```
wails3 dev
```
This will start your application and enable hot-reloading for both frontend and backend changes.
To build your application for production, use:
```
wails3 build
```
This will create a production-ready executable in the build directory.

Exploring Wails3 Features

Now that you have your project set up, it's time to explore the features that Wails3 offers:

Check out the examples: The best way to learn is by example. Visit the examples directory in the v3/examples directory to see various sample applications.
Run an example: To run any of the examples, navigate to the example's directory and use:
```
go run .
```
Note: Some examples may be under development during the alpha phase.
Explore the documentation: Visit the Wails3 documentation for in-depth guides and API references.
Join the community: Have questions or want to share your progress? Join the Wails Discord or visit the Wails discussions on GitHub.

Project Structure

Take a moment to familiarize yourself with your project structure:

frontend/: Contains your frontend code (HTML, CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript)
main.go: The entry point of your Go backend
app.go: Define your application structure and methods here
wails.json: Configuration file for your Wails project

Next Steps

Modify the frontend in the frontend/ directory to create your desired UI.
Add backend functionality in main.go.
Use wails3 dev to see your changes in real-time.
When ready, build your application with wails3 build.

Happy coding with Wails3! If you encounter any issues or have questions, don't hesitate to consult the documentation or reach out to the Wails community.
