Hey Rustaceans! Got an easy question? Ask here (40/2021)!
There's several different approaches you could take, but I'd probably suggest macroquad as the easiest. I've also used minifb for windowing + a drawing library like raqote or tiny-skia.

Yofi A Minimalistic Application Launcher For
You may specify font family by adding a line font = "Source Sans Pro" into a config file (path is $HOME/.config/yofi/yofi.config). Though, perhaps you meant "Source Code Pro" which is unfortunately broken in third-party rendering library. You may specify font size similarly with font_size = 12 line, though the binary from the last release doesn't support it yet, so you either may built yofi from master (as simple as cargo b --release), or wait for the next release (I think it will be on this week).

Cosmic: The Road to Alpha
Bit of a side note, but COSMIC depends on the rustybuzz text shaper which is deprecated: https://github.com/RazrFalcon/rustybuzz/issues/74. There was some work underway to bring it up to sync with the latest harfbuzz and then handing over ownership to the harfbuzz team, but this seems to have fizzled out.

Is coding in Rust as bad as in C++? A practical comparison
I understand that this may sound harsh, but I also ported two (far bigger) codebases from C++ to Rust: rustybuzz and tiny-skia. Both of which are production -ready and not just prototypes. And mine not only do not use pointers, but also barely use unsafe in general.

Looking for good sources on incremental rewrites to Rust of portions of a C++ codebase. Is this a feasible approach?
