import pink
import pink/attribute
import pink/state

pub fn main() {
    // Create a new React component (we need this to use hooks)
    use <- pink.component()

    // Initialize a state (this is React's useState hook)
    let message = state.init("World")

    // Create a box with a border and a text component inside
    pink.box([attribute.border_style(attribute.BorderSingle)], [
        pink.text([], "Hello, " <> state.get(message))
    ])
}
