Bare Metal Rust in Android
> At least with a language like Go, it somewhat makes sense, and has been attempted: https://gioui.org/
Gio UI is an immediate-mode UI, and immediate-mode UIs map very nicely to Rust. egui is quite easy to use. https://www.egui.rs/

net/http extension to exchange structs
I've been writing a WASM app using gio & I found myself wanting for a simplified web library. In addition I drew some inspiration from leptos server functions. A friend of mine mentioned it has some similarities with next.js

Are there any popular computer applications written in Golang?
Historically, C++. Today, (unfortunately) a lot of (non-game) desktop apps are written in HTML/CSS/JS using Electron. There are projects like Fyne and GIO that aim to make Go a viable language for building large-scale performant desktop apps. My open-source hobby project Supersonic is a music player app built using Fyne.

gomobile no longer maintained
It’s actually extremely easy, if you use one of the actively developed options like https://fyne.io or https://gioui.org for example. Flutter’s Dart may help with real-time hacking of UI but Go produces better code in the long run!
What are some alternatives?
When comparing gi and gio you can also consider the following projects:
fyne-x - Community extensions to the cross platform GUI in Go based on Material Design
fyne - Cross platform GUI toolkit in Go inspired by Material Design
govcl - Cross-platform Go/Golang GUI library.

go-flutter - Flutter on Windows, MacOS and Linux - based on Flutter Embedding, Go and GLFW.
