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/

Recommended Rust GUI Libraries
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 :)

[concept] Modular kernel
The OS would be built in Rust and the module system could be made using ELF executibles (fast, but it could be really hard to implement modules to communicate with the kernel), WASM (can compile from many languages, slower but not too slow, APIs can be simple enough to implement if the correct VM is choses) or even a custom scripting language like rhai (slower, but best way for the implementation [way to connect modules and kernel]).
