Linux version of Warp terminal is here
Hi! I’m Aloke, an engineer at Warp.
I’m really excited to share that Warp is now available on Linux! If you’re interested in trying it out, you can download Warp: https://warp.dev/
Building Warp on Linux was quite an undertaking. Warp uses a custom Rust-based UI framework that we built in house and renders natively on the GPU. To get Warp running on Linux, we built a version of our UI framework that supports winit [1] as a windowing backend. We also built a version of our renderer that uses wgpu [2]. Reducing complexity by using these well-supported, cross platform, frameworks let us bootstrap a version of Linux quicker than expected and should make it easier to build Warp for other platforms (like Windows).
Please let me know what you think! Happy to answer any questions, either about the product or about technical challenges.

Can't get winit sample to compile
This link: https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit has this code:

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (28/2023)!
Have you seen the official example?

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (20/2023)!
That's a bit shortsighted given that there is an active discussion about reducing the interior mutability.

File dialog with ImGui?
I really need a file dialog for my ImGui-based project in Rust. I tried using this crate but it's wayyyyyyy too old. I also saw this but considering the date it was last updated and the look of the repo, it's not gonna work either. Also I maintain my own library for such things, but it's currently blocked by this issue. What options do I have?

Announcing async-winit, a new way to use winit as an async runtime
In this case, I used the "A"GPL because this crate could feasibly run on the web. winit has a web backend. At the moment I don't support it (there's a PR that needs to land first), but in the near future it's not implausible that this crate could be used in a web environment.

XUL Layout has been removed from Firefox
There are a number of up-and-coming Rust-based frameworks in this niche:
- https://github.com/iced-rs/iced (probably the most usable today)
- https://github.com/vizia/vizia
- https://github.com/marc2332/freya
- https://github.com/linebender/xilem (currently very incomplete but exciting because it's from a team with a strong track record)
What is also exciting to me is that the Rust GUI ecosystem is in many cases building itself up with modular libraries. So while we have umpteen competing frameworks they are to a large degree all building and collaborating on the same foundations. For example, we have:
- https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit (cross-platform window creation)
- https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu (abstraction on top of vulkan/metal/dx12)
- https://github.com/linebender/vello (a canvas like imperative drawing API on top of wgpu)
- https://github.com/DioxusLabs/taffy (UI layout algorithms)
- https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-text (text rendering and editing)
- https://github.com/AccessKit/accesskit (cross-platform accessibility APIs)
In many cases there a see https://blessed.rs/crates#section-graphics-subsection-gui for a more complete list of frameworks and foundational libraries)

Using Dioxus with Rust to build performant single-page apps
While we took an in-depth look at Dioxus in this tutorial, there is still so much to learn. Luckily, Dioxus provides detailed documentation with references and cookbooks to guide developers. Make sure you check it out, and feel free to comment below with any questions.

Package All the Things
You can probably imagine the challenges of integrating such a system in a robust way that does a good job and improves on the status quo. We felt like the Tauri implementation worked well for Tauri apps. But there’s a problem: it was so tightly coupled to Tauri that the work couldn’t be enjoyed by other projects (not even the ones like Dioxus who were using Tauri’s underlying technology of Tao + Wry).

Announcing Floneum (A open source graph editor for local AI workflows written in rust)
Floneum is a graph editor for local AI workflows. It uses llm to run large language models locally, egui, and dioxus for the frontend, and wasmtime for the plugin system. If you are interested in the project, consider joining the discord, or building a plugin for Floneum in rust using WASI
