Taffy 0.3: UI layout in Rust, now with css-grid!
Generally you'd use a UI framework that integrates Taffy, text layout, and a bunch of other plumbing into one toolkit. However, if you wanted to make such a thing yourself you would use a library like cosmic-text or parley

Taffy 0.3: UI layout in Rust, now with css-grid!
Yeah, that's my crate (https://github.com/nicoburns/iced_taffy). It'll be seeing more attention now that the grid work is finally released, but it'll probably require the next Taffy release in order to be releasable to crates.io.

Announcing concoct! A cross-platform native UI framework (formerly viewbuilder)
Yeah, that can definitely be a problem. I think Iced gets around this by type erasing children using Into and storing children in a Vec. This ends up with view definition code that is not dissimilar to Concoct. Although it a little more verbose. See for example my iced_taffy experiment: https://github.com/nicoburns/iced_taffy/blob/main/examples/nested.rs

What do people use for simple UI projects?
I've been working on more powerful layout (Flexbox and CSS Grid) for Iced based on Taffy. It's going to be a while until it's production ready as it has required relatively significant changes to Taffy to allow it to integrate with Iced, but if you're willing to live on the bleeding edge then there's an experimental CSS Grid widget available here: https://github.com/nicoburns/iced_taffy
