Project mention: Show HN: Rocal UI β A simple template engine with Rust | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-04-26
Maybe, if you want those features, you would love yew and leptos which are other UI frameworks with Rust.

Rust? It's built clean from the ground up. The crates.io registry is full of modern, safe, composable libraries. You've got Axum, Rocket and Actix for backends, Leptos, Dioxus, and Yew for frontend, and more. Every library you use follows the same philosophy: safety, performance, and zero tolerance for ambiguity.

slint
Slint is an open-source declarative GUI toolkit to build native user interfaces for Rust, C++, JavaScript, or Python apps.
> I wonder if someone could make a decent cross-platform GUI toolkit to save us from the horribly slow Electron-hell we've carved out for ourselves.

Sorry but this engine had(s) problems rendenring a rectangle with alpha channel 3 months ago (I'm assuming it was fixed).
Is it normal for Rust ecosystem to use software of this level of maturity?

> Is this something Flutter doesn't do?
Flutter does do this (at least to some extent) on Desktop/Mobile. It attempts to create a hidden DOM tree for accessibility on web. Which generally doesn't seem to be thought to work very well.
> One of the most jarring experiences I have with Flutter Desktop was it lacked MacOS Emacs-style key bindings for text editing (ctrl-a, ctrl-e, etc.). Not sure if Dioxus solved this?
Ah, we're nearly there on that one. We have a PR [0] accepted into Winit (the underlying windowing library we use) which will allow us to access those events. We're just waiting on Winit to do a new release and then we can integrate it into Dioxus.

I found fltk-rs @ https://crates.io/crates/fltk was easy to install and use. Installation for new users is a nice feature.
