qoin: gRPC API for MediaPipe
This is a desktop application that a pointer moves in the display following hand moving. It is written in Rust using conrod as the GUI framework. There is no official gRPC implementation, but we can use such as tonic.

Can you combine piston and conrod libraries?
If anyone is reading this in the future, there is an example at https://github.com/PistonDevelopers/conrod/tree/master/backends/conrod_piston.

Dyon – A rusty dynamically typed scripting language
Also check out conrod[0] which is from the same group. One of the really awesome GUI projects in rust that sticks out in my mind.

Rust GUI framework
There is Iced which is used by system76 in Pop!_OS, Druid [DISCONTINUED], GTK-rs, Relm, Azul and Tauri. Personally I would use Tauri for its speed using the OS's native web render, documentation of use with things such as Sveltekit and the ability to make UI's using JS, CSS and HTML. Tauri similarly to Electron whilst being far faster. But its up to personal preference really. There aren't any solid "go to" options at the moment.

What are the pros/cons of the best GUI options for a cross platform app in Rust?
Currently, I have narrowed potential libraries to: 1. Flutter 2. FLTK 3. Relm (GTK) 4. iced 5. Slint 6. Imgui, Imgui-rs 7. and gtk-rs

is makeing Vulkan guis worth it?
Relm, Slint (formerly SixtyFPS), Druid and Iced are all very promising idiomatic GUI toolkits with a great deal of community activity around them, and all of those perform substantially better in the accessibility department than ImGui and egui, to my knowledge. areweguiyet.com can give you some more pointers as well.

The state of Rust GUI libraries
To use relm, you need to add the gtk and relm libraries to your project's dependencies in your Cargo.toml file. You’ll also need to have the gtk library installed.

A declarative desktop UI framework for Rust built on GTK and GTK-rs
No , not really a lot of the time people are trying to tackle problems that have taken years to solve in other languages which isn’t easy and is why you see stuff abandoned. This project is also pretty similar to [relm](https://github.com/antoyo/relm) which is an active project.

egui or iced or druid?
The [older gtk3 version of relm](https://github.com/antoyo/relm) has 2.1k stars. Relm4 is uses gtk4 which is newer.

Any good resources for using Rust with GTK4 and Libadwaita?
Relm (supposedly more idiomatic)
What are some alternatives?
When comparing conrod and relm you can also consider the following projects:
Azul - Desktop GUI Framework
gtk - DEPRECATED, use https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk3-rs repository instead!
imgui-rs - Rust bindings for Dear ImGui
Native Windows GUI - A light windows GUI toolkit for rust
iced - A cross-platform GUI library for Rust, inspired by Elm
libui-rs - Rust bindings to the minimalist, native, cross-platform UI toolkit `libui`
egui - egui: an easy-to-use immediate mode GUI in Rust that runs on both web and native
wxRust - A Rust binding of the wxWidgets cross platform toolkit.
Relm4 - An idiomatic GUI library inspired by Elm and based on gtk4-rs [Moved to: https://github.com/Relm4/Relm4]
