Text

func Text(content any) *viewNode

Text accepts three argument shapes:

• string: renders as static text.
• Signal[string]: renders reactively (produced by StateValue.Format or Derived).
• Any other value: converted via fmt.Sprint(content) and rendered as static text. This is convenient for printing numbers or structs but loses reactivity.

Styling

Text accepts every modifier in the core set:

gova.Text("Welcome").
    Font(gova.Title).
    Bold().
    Color(gova.Accent).
    Padding(gova.SpaceSM)

See Modifiers for the full list. Font styles available out of the box: Body, Title, Title2, Title3, Caption, Mono.

Reactive content

count := gova.State(s, 0)
 
gova.Text(count.Format("count: %d"))
 
gova.Text(gova.Derived(count, func(n int) string {
    if n == 1 {
        return "1 item"
    }
    return fmt.Sprintf("%d items", n)
}))

The text patches in place when the underlying state changes; the view does not need to rerender for the label to update.
