Azure CTO: “It's time to halt starting any new projects in C/C++ ”
Most GUI apps don't need what Qt provides though. They mostly need stability and cross-platform support, so ... they should start with something like Tauri or Sciter, and if there is something they need natively they will be in a much better situation to pick their poison.

Do you think the Rust is production ready for GUI in 2021?
I seriously advise against using rust-sciter. It uses a lot of unsafe code, some of which is invalid and directly causes Undefined Behavior; see for example issue #114. rust-sciter's author doesn't seem to have any interest in fixing those. Besides, the code is highly unidomatic and looks like it's been written to resemble C++ – this is in itself not wrong, but always a red flag.

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?

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!

SvelteKit - web development, streamlined
iced - A cross-platform GUI library for Rust, inspired by Elm
Cursive - A Text User Interface library for the Rust programming language
egui - egui: an easy-to-use immediate mode GUI in Rust that runs on both web and native
libui-rs - Rust bindings to the minimalist, native, cross-platform UI toolkit `libui`
gtk4-rs - Rust bindings of GTK 4
rustdesk - An open-source remote desktop, and alternative to TeamViewer.
gtk-rs - Rust bindings for GTK 3
Native Windows GUI - A light windows GUI toolkit for rust
druid - A data-first Rust-native UI design toolkit.
slint - Slint is a declarative GUI toolkit to build native user interfaces for Rust, C++, or JavaScript apps.
