  • Integrate with Skia GL
    2 projects | /r/GTK | 23 Aug 2023
    The only example that shedded some light on the integration was gtk4 + femtovg. So I mimicked the example, using gtk4-rs and Skia's rust bindings. I had some code similar to the following inside a subclass of GLArea to setup Skia's DirectContext, but it failed:

    Hi, I am studying gtk4 with rust, now trying to check examples from https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk4-rs/tree/master/examples some of them are building and compiling but text_viewer(cargo run --bin text_viewer) and some others are failing with the error below
  • How do I use ColumnView ?
    1 project | /r/GTK | 14 May 2023
    I created a demo of using column view in gtk4-rs rust here...maybe be a point of reference https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk4-rs/tree/master/examples/column_view_datagrid

  • 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).
  • Are there any good UI/GUI libraries out there?
    8 projects | /r/rust | 30 Nov 2022
    There are good GTK bindings for Rust (https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk4-rs and https://github.com/Relm4/Relm4)
  • GTK4 + Rust + GLArea: How do I set the opengl version?
    1 project | /r/GTK | 6 Nov 2022
    I've been following this example to get something that works for whatever the default opengl context version is, however, I can't figure out how to request a specific opengl version on context creation: https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk4-rs/tree/master/examples/glium_gl_area
  • Rust for Linux can be compiled with GCC codegen(only few hacks are needed)
    2 projects | /r/linux | 9 Oct 2022
    gtk4-rs itself feels like it takes very little time to build: https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk4-rs but when you add up all the time to building all examples afterwards, it's about the same and provides the equivalent of capabilities of QT(C++ and RUST) so yes it's going to take time to build.
  • The state of Rust GUI libraries
    9 projects | dev.to | 17 Aug 2022
    The gtk-rs project provides safe Rust bindings for GNOME stack-based libraries, like the GTK 3 and GTK 4 libraries. The gtk3-rs and gtk4-rs libraries provides GTK 3 and GTK 4 functionalities, respectively.
  • Any good resources for using Rust with GTK4 and Libadwaita?

    Check out the examples in the gtk4-rs repository.
