How to build GUI for custom LCD screen connected to an Arduino Board?
Even if one used embedded-graphics, which would't require a line buffer, 8k is probably not enough RAM for the stack of a non-trivial Rust program. At least my even fairly simple RTIC programs that run fine in the 160k of a Feather M4 do not run at all in the 32k of a Feather M0.

New crate for embedded-graphics: U8g2-fonts (feedback desired)
I rewrote the font subsystem of U8g2 in pure Rust, introducing a large number of fonts to embedded-graphics.

What Graphics Library to use?
Another project I've used is embedded-graphics which is useful if your target has more limited resources: https://github.com/embedded-graphics/embedded-graphics

Debian Running on Rust Coreutils
We use it a bit for https://github.com/embedded-graphics/embedded-graphics and I have to say I love it. It's just the right balance between configuration variables/constants and "a folder full of bash scripts". I highly recommend giving Just a try.

Rust GUI Development?
GTK: I have little - no experience with GTK, and from what i have read it is cross-platform similar to wxWidgets, however is an emulated UI system similar to Qt. As i have no experience with it i am not sure how well supported this library is as far as it's Rust - bindings are concerned gtk-rs

gtk-rs: can't get window ID with command inside connect_show or connect_realize
In a gtk-rs application, I'm running a xdotool command to get the id of the application's window. I'm running the command in a connect_show closure (after the window has been shown):

My (challenging) experience building a window switcher for Ubuntu
To build the UI, I used gtk-rs. My experience with this library was quite pleasant; it was easy to use and there were a lot of examples. However, it isn't as widely used as, say, React, so it was difficult to find answer on Stack Overflow (I come from a JavaScript/Typescript background).

x11rs can't access window created with gtk-rs
I'm using x11rb to interact with a window created with gtk-rs. window_id is the ID of the window created with gtk-rs. window_id_2 is the ID of the window created with x11rb (for testing purposes).

What GUI libs are out there and good to use?
I haven't used it yet, but gtk-rs looks pretty good too. I've used GTK in general, just not the Rust bindings so far. The tutorials seem nice and GTK is a good UI toolkit overall.

gtk-rs: triggering code after the window has been shown
I'm using gtk-rs. I want to trigger some code after the window has been shown (has displayed on the screen):

Adding ListBoxRow to ListBox from inside a closure
I'm using gtk-rs to add ListBoxRow items to a ListBox. The items are successfully added if I do it outside of input.connect_changed, a closure. But nothing is added if I do it from inside input.connect_changed:

gtk-ks: Join the Effort to create GTK Bindings for Kotlin!
Out there there are already some open source projects trying to do this, but most of them are abandoned or in a very alpha stage. The most promising project so far seems to me git-kt. This project is trying to do something similar to what gtk-rs does for Rust, which is using GObject Introspection (GIR) files to generate Kotlin native bindings automatically.
