GTK language bindings, GObject over native classes?
Probably, many gtk-rs devs have used C before and also GObjects can give you more control in some cases. But for the most part you will be fine using idiomatic Rust with something like Relm4.

Got a few questions for those who are daily drivin the PinePhone
As for writing apps, I've been enjoying Rust + Relm4 (https://github.com/AaronErhardt/relm4), but it might be easier to start off with Python or Vala and GTK or similar. A lot of gnome apps are Python. This looks like a good way to get started: https://www.gtk.org/docs/language-bindings/python/

Creator of [Relm4](https://github.com/AaronErhardt/relm4 here. Of course I might be a bit biased but I honestly think Relm4 has currently the best cross-platform and full-featured GUI experience for Rust programmers :)

The state of gui libraries in rust?
If you only need to support Windows desktop, then let me shill my crate: native-windows-gui. It's super lightweight and it wraps pretty much all the gui stuff provided by win32. Just note that isn't really customizable look-wise.
