root: Root = await create_root(ctx)

# by default `root` has a `view` property
root.view

# You can add items to the view using `add_items` method
await root.view.add_items(
    Button(on_click_callback, "This is the label"),

    SelectMenu(
        on_select_callback, options = [
            SelectOption
        ]
    )
