How to write a QML effect for KWin
The organization behind QT (QT Group) has pretty onerous licensing terms.
My understanding is that it's $3,950 per year just to develop using their libraries on your own computer if you ever in the future intend to commercialize a product using QT. Transitioning from the open source license to the commercial license is something you can do but it's not the happy path and their FAQ seems to indicate that it comes with some sort of penalty.
Something like Slint (Rust based but includes CPP and JS bindings) is not as comprehensive (yet) but it's more modern and the licensing terms are significantly more in line with software industry norms.
GPUI from Zed is also something to monitor: https://www.gpui.rs/
Also, in general you can find an extensive list of Rust-based native UI libraries here: https://areweguiyet.com/

The KDE desktop gets an overhaul with Plasma 6
I would suggest that nearly every person on this website is a developer. Both C and C++ let you shoot yourself in the foot quite easily, but at least C++ has RAII.
If you're referring to Rust, it's just not there yet for anything serious: https://areweguiyet.com/

Ask HN: Rust Viable for Data Analytics?
I normally use python to do some quick data analysis, with pandas/polars/pyspark/...
But I've started to use rust more and more in the last few weeks and really start to like it.
Does anyone have experience doing data analysis with rust, and would you recommend it over python?
And are there any resources like https://areweguiyet.com/ but for data analysis?

On inheritance and why it's good Rust doesn't have it
You still haven't said anything about why those existing frameworks don't count. Again, they are used in production and do exactly what a gui framework is supposed to do. Sure they may not have all the features of the frameworks that have existed a decade before rust even existed but the issue is time not rust itself. They very clearly can be used to build complex UI without inheritance. Since you mentioned it, you should probably actually look at it https://areweguiyet.com/ the page clearly says that GUI frameworks do exist in rust.

BeeWare Toga v0.4.0 – A Python native, OS native GUI toolkit
The web site https://areweguiyet.com/ has a list of GUI libraries for Rust.
I haven’t tried any yet as I lack the time, but it can be a good starting point.
Iced and Slint where interesting when I looked at that, and Slint may be done by former Qt developers.

Writing Gnome Apps with Swift
There is Relm (https://relm4.org/). Which is in Rust is just GTK (through it's Rust bindings) with a nice reactivity layer on top.

Resources for learning to write ui files for GTK4
I’d recommend you checking out https://relm4.org if you know a little Rust. Relm4 is currently the easiest and most intuitive way to write GTK

[media] Czkawka 6.0 - File cleaner, now finds similar audio files by content, files by size and name and fix and speedup similar images search
Relm4 might make your migration easier. It has factories which make it easy to create lists (both sync and async) and recently added TypedListView as another useful abstraction over pure gtk-rs. There is a lot of potential in Rust + GTK, you just have to find idiomatic abstractions.

What are the scenarios where "Rewrite it in Rust" didn't meet your expectations or couldn't be successfully implemented?
Did you try Relm? It's an implementation is the elm architecture (think react) on top of Gtk. Given your experience with Gtk it might suit you really well, as you can even take only parts of it and continue using bare Gtk for the rest. Give it a try!

GUI development with Rust and GTK 4
What about relm4? Is it generally feature complete? Can one use relm4 for most things, and drop to gtk4 for the oddball task that is not supported?

Forte! A new way of writing Gtk apps for GNOME.
What advantage would this Rust crate have over Relm4? It seems pretty similar to me, save for the property based syntax that Forte has, instead of the set_* ones used on Relm4.

Need guidance for developping GTK4 + Libwaita apps
If you like Rust I recommend Relm4, one of the best experiences I’ve had with a framework tbh, be sure to learn gtk-rs first.
