AHK Webview Template

Overview

The AHK Webview Template offers a modern approach for AutoHotkey users looking to enhance their GUI development experience. Built using Vite and Tailwind CSS, this template serves as a robust framework that supports frontend hot-reloading, allowing developers to efficiently create visually appealing and interactive interfaces for their AHK applications. Given that this project is still a work in progress, users should be prepared for evolving features and adjustments as development continues.

The template cleverly integrates the WebViewToo wrapper, enabling seamless communication between the frontend and the AHK script. Users can experience real-time interactions through input boxes and receive immediate feedback, all while enjoying the convenience of a drag-and-drop functionality for window management.
