Whats the best native file picker?
So currently I'm using rfd which works perfectly on linux. But it seems to not work on windows, and i know of the the single thread issue on macos.

How can I move variable outside async block?
Sure, thanks for the suggestions. I initially thought this would be a generic issue that didn't need much context, I now see that's not the case... I also like to think about this particular code as a "block". The block has to open a file and call self.reset(&code). Therefore, I don't have a particular commit with an issue, the code itself (which I basically copied from the rfd example has the issue...

Cargo features have to be additive
As an example, there are quite a bit of crates out there with multiple implementations of a common API that are mutually exclusive and the crates do not support picking the implementation in runtime. For example: https://github.com/PolyMeilex/rfd/issues/49

ASHPD 0.2 release, a XDG DBus portals wrapper in Rust
I used this to contribute a backend for rfd so you can have cross platform native file dialogs without depending on GTK on Linux.

zbus 2.0 (Super easy! Barely an inconvenience) is out!
I haven't yet used the dbus crate but I was thinking of doing so soon for https://github.com/PolyMeilex/rfd/issues/36. Could you elaborate what bothered you about the dbus crate and why you think zbus is nicer to use?

Which GUI toolkit for Rust today.. few questions...
fltk-rs worked well for me, for a small app.

no good UI toolkit/framework
Gtk doesn’t require you to write xml, you can write your gui code in Rust. You also have https://github.com/fltk-rs/fltk-rs

What are the pros/cons of the best GUI options for a cross platform app in Rust?
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

The state of Rust GUI libraries
The fltk-rs library provides Rust bindings for the FLTK toolkit. The fltk-rs crate supports old architecture with more than 80 customizable widgets and more than four supported theme schemes, including the GTK scheme. You can also use the fltk-theme crate for more customizations.

fltk-plot - A simple, interactive 2D plotting library using fltk-rs
A friend of mine grew tired of plotting libraries that did not allow adding data points to his plot interactively like you can in Matlab, so he wrote one using FLTK using C++. I refactored his code a bit and then ported to Rust using the fltk-rs crate. Recently I needed this library for a project and I noticed I had not made it publicly available on Github. So I present to you the fltk-plot library!

fltk-rs version 1.3.0 released
fltk-rs is a Rust bindings crate for FLTK, the cross-platfrom & lightweight gui library.

libportal - libportal - Flatpak portal library
iced - A cross-platform GUI library for Rust, inspired by Elm
rustbreak - A simple, fast and easy to use self-contained single file storage for Rust
egui - egui: an easy-to-use immediate mode GUI in Rust that runs on both web and native
alacritty - A cross-platform, OpenGL terminal emulator.
gtk4-rs - Rust bindings of GTK 4
http-server - Simple and configurable command-line HTTP server
gtk-rs - Rust bindings for GTK 3
Voila - Voila is a domain-specific language launched through CLI tool for operating with files and directories in massive amounts in a fast & reliable way.
