  • Cross platform native guis in rust

    If you want a "native-like" toolkit like Qt but Rust-native, then Druid, KAS and Iced are the most advanced in my opinion (though all are incomplete).
  • What type of projects would fit well with Rust?
    1 project | /r/rust | 26 Dec 2020
    Druid (https://github.com/xi-editor/druid) is really cool actually for making nice looking GUIs with low memory footprint and minimal executable size, it's still experimental, but worth to try. Also take a look as Iced, Concord

kas

  • I like rust but want to use Qt.
    8 projects | /r/rust | 11 Dec 2023
    Qt classic/widgets? I'm developing Kas to offer vaguely similar features (e.g. data models, theme abstraction, custom widgets with complex event handling), though said event handling and data models are quite different. It's still got a long way to go (so API is not stable), but in case you are interested, I should be dropping a new release tomorrow.

  • Does a wgpu text renderer exist for Android?
    5 projects | /r/rust_gamedev | 16 Mar 2022
    kas-wgpu looks hopeful, but there's very little information about it and I'm not even sure it works on Android.

  • KAS GUI v0.9

    The next release will support dynamic linking which approx. halves the recompile time in my quick tests. This is based on Bevy which also recommends using LLD (see here); I didn't have much success with this yet however.

  • KAS GUI v0.7 release
    3 projects | /r/rust | 3 Apr 2021
    Yes. It was actually a mistake (using a nightly compiler and not realising the lock-in). But in this case (with KAS still in "earlyish development" and the workaround being less concise), I decided to leave it.
  • Type conversion, success expected
    2 projects | /r/rust | 18 Mar 2021
    This is a little library I've been using recently (original version here).
