OctaSine (frequency modulation synth plugin) v0.8.2: migrate from iced v0.4 to v0.6, other improvements
Most of the work went into migrating from iced version 0.4 to 0.6. This meant switching to pure widgets and the new, improved styling system, as well as rewriting portions of iced_baseview. iced_audio also needed work for compatibility with iced 0.6, most of which was done by fengalin.

Which GUI framework should I use for a cross-platform synthesizer?
You can use iced_audio widgets

New to lower level languages
Rust is quite well suited for VST development. There's a library for easily creating VST 2 plugins and you can use for example iced for your plugin GUI. In my opinion the Steinberg C++ VST SDK is bloated and cumbersome to use in comparison.

Which GUI framework should I use for a cross-platform synthesizer?
I'd give try the beautiful Elements (https://github.com/djowel/elements/) developed by Joel de Guzman, author of the Boost.Spirit by the way, who is also a keen musician and develops sound engineering apps. See his articles at https://www.cycfi.com
