Spotify-Qt
On the other hand, this Rust-based one called Psst looks awesome and works: https://github.com/jpochyla/psst

This is the best Linux has ever been. Truly.
Psst but currently very limited in features and have to build yourself.

Flatpak Spotify vs Tab in Firefox browser
Would like to add that you can also use clients such as spotify-qt and Spotify TUI to control said "device". There's also Spot and psst that are standalone (librespot not required but no Connect functionality).

Rust audio library
You can also take a look at Psst. I use Symphonia for decoding and CPAL or CubeB for output. CubeB is a bit nicer.

Druid app for public transport data
Thereās a Spotify client, psst, which has an Async widget (with a Promise state struct) that works very well for loading states etc. That project has a bunch of other tidbits and interesting patterns for Druid, I learned a ton from the code.

Advice for the next dozen Rust GUIs
Not that I'm in any way suggesting that you have to have to pursue this, but I'd suggest that not having this as a goal is why it hasn't happened. I've seen apps built with Druid (like https://github.com/jpochyla/psst) and they look great. But when I looked into the documentation, I was really struggling to get started. In contrast, libraries like Iced are quite limited in what they can do and are not as architecturally sound as Druid, but seem to have put more effort into the onboarding experience and documentation for beginners (see also: the effort that Rust itself puts into being beginner friendly, and how that has enabled it jump into the mainstream where other similar languages have remained niche).

The Psst spotify player is just awesome.

Deno in 2023
Currently, we do it by using binaries through napi-rs so we can bring in a window using the platform native API. And then we do some hack to merge the event loops.
But if Deno supports bringing up a window directly, this means we can just ship wasm instead of native binary for all platform. And also I hope event loop integration will be simplified.
Although we'd also need more API than just showing a window (mouse and keyboard input, accessibility, popup window, system tray, ...)

Slint GUI Toolkit
Rich Text content is not yet implemented. This is tracked in https://github.com/slint-ui/slint/issues/2723
Thanks for reporting the broken link. Fixed in https://github.com/slint-ui/slint/commit/9200480b532f49007d2...
Web is not a primary target of Slint.
> Web: In Progress. Slint apps can be compiled to WebAssembly and can run in a web browser. As there are many other web frameworks, the web platform is not one of our primary target platforms. The web support is currently limited to demo purposes.

A 2024 Plea for Lean Software
With Slint (https://slint.dev) we're trying to make a lightweight toolkit that doesn't use HTML/CSS. And that you can program either from low level languages such as C++ or Rust. As well as with higher level language such as JavaScript, and we want to extend to python too.

Immediate Mode GUI Programming
I haven't. I was just searching for a GUI library that was Bevy-compatible and slint isn't at the moment: https://github.com/slint-ui/slint/discussions/940
Sorry!

The Linux graphics stack in a nutshell, part 1
