n-link VS relm

Is this for the TI-84 Plus CE or TI Nspire CX? You can try ticalc.link or N-link https://lights0123.com/n-link/

Try using N-Link

Or even this should work https://lights0123.com/n-link/

That doesn't work all too well with Nspire series. Using TI's own online program or my N-Link are generally much more reliable.

If you actually have a Nspire CX II CAS then you can use the open source alternative N-Link: https://github.com/lights0123/n-link

I believe you only have to pay TI if you buy your Nspire used. New calculators come with a key in the box so you can activate the student software without a subscription. Even if you get a used one, there's an open source, free alternative called N-Link: https://github.com/lights0123/n-link It's what I use since I got my Nspire used and TI refused to provide a replacement student software key to me.

The Nspire CX II (CAS) will still work with any student software on any machine, it's not locked to a specific system. The issue is that TI will refuse to provide a student software key for used calculators unless you have the original receipt. I already went though this and my advice is, don't waste your time contacting them. There's an open source, free alternative called N-Link which works wayyyy better for transferring files and updating the calculator. I've personally been using it without issue: https://github.com/lights0123/n-link

For the CX-II this website works, although buggy at times: https://lights0123.com/n-link/

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.

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

Relm (GTK)

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.

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.

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.

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

Relm (supposedly more idiomatic)
