nannou VS postsack

Another idea would be to do something with Nannou, it's pretty straightforward to get some visually pleasing results and I find these Processing/P5 inspired creative coding libraries allow for a lot of exploration and expression. The Coding Train is a YouTube channel which has dozens of these kinds of projects, translating them into Rust certainly is good exercise.

Assuming you’re talking about https://nannou.cc they advertise a slack, a matrix, and a github org.

Never used this, no idea If it's what you want, but maybe https://nannou.cc/?

https://nannou.cc/ may be worth checking out.

"creative coding" usually refers to a framework where a developer/artist can code up nice things quickly

for example https://github.com/nannou-org/nannou/blob/master/examples/dr...

I've exported individual frames using this mechanism, I've never tried gif encoding before but seems like there's support for it,

I've recently used trunk for the first time. It is a huge improvement to the current way of building a Rust wasm app. For one of my apps that doesn't use trunk, I'm maintaining these two scripts to set up a system and to compile a wasm bundle:

I wrote a cross platform Desktop app that can analyze these email backups to provide a visual clustering of the contents of your mails.

It parses my 13gb Gmail backup in under a minute.

I recently finished a cross platform app written w/ Rust / egui: https://github.com/terhechte/postsack

Coming from Swift, it was actually a fun experience. It doesn’t look very native, but neither does electron..

Another nice Rust ui framework is Druid: https://github.com/linebender/druid

- Image support isn't particularly nice. Loading textures and accessing them at runtime is a bit of a hassle. Here's the code to load a PNG (https://github.com/terhechte/postsack/blob/main/ps-gui/src/textures.rs). In other similar frameworks (say Nannou or Bevy) this is usually one line (https://github.com/nannou-org/nannou/blob/master/examples/draw/draw_texture.rs) (Bevy actually has a very nice handle system to allow access to loaded resources from anywhere).
