  1. dioxus

    Fullstack app framework for web, desktop, and mobile.

    Dioxus is still pre-1.0. We will try to minimize unnecessary changes, but there will be breaking changes between 0.x releases. This allows us to keep iterating to find the best approach.

    Here is a rough roadmap: https://github.com/DioxusLabs/dioxus/blob/master/docs/guide/...

    The major projects for the next year are to improving the native render (Blitz), the full stack framework (Tokamak), Router, and subtree rendering.

  3. iced

    A cross-platform GUI library for Rust, inspired by Elm

    You can use GTK from Rust. But the Rust native ones aren't really there yet. [Iced](https://github.com/iced-rs/iced) which has been picked up by System76 and [Druid](https://github.com/linebender/druid) (and it's next gen version [Xilem](https://github.com/linebender/xilem)) are the ones to watch, along with Dioxus which is the main post here.

    I'd expect there to be something useable by the end of 2023.

  4. rust-skia

    Rust Bindings for the Skia Graphics Library

    Iā€˜d probably look into Skia first, it also drives Flutter. https://github.com/rust-skia/rust-skia

  5. blitz

    A radically modular HTML/CSS rendering engine (by DioxusLabs)

    It doesn't... yet. But that is being worked upon. Native renderer is here: https://github.com/DioxusLabs/blitz

  6. druid

    A data-first Rust-native UI design toolkit. (by linebender)

    You can use GTK from Rust. But the Rust native ones aren't really there yet. [Iced](https://github.com/iced-rs/iced) which has been picked up by System76 and [Druid](https://github.com/linebender/druid) (and it's next gen version [Xilem](https://github.com/linebender/xilem)) are the ones to watch, along with Dioxus which is the main post here.

    I'd expect there to be something useable by the end of 2023.

  7. xilem

    An experimental Rust native UI framework

    You can use GTK from Rust. But the Rust native ones aren't really there yet. [Iced](https://github.com/iced-rs/iced) which has been picked up by System76 and [Druid](https://github.com/linebender/druid) (and it's next gen version [Xilem](https://github.com/linebender/xilem)) are the ones to watch, along with Dioxus which is the main post here.

    I'd expect there to be something useable by the end of 2023.

  8. taffy

    A high performance rust-powered UI layout library

    It's coming. Flexbox (and CSS Grid) are implemented in [taffy](https://github.com/DioxusLabs/taffy). Multiline text rendering and layout are implemented in [cosmic_text](https://docs.rs/cosmic-text/latest/cosmic_text/). Dioxus linked here implements a component system with state management and reactivity. It's all quite new though (cosmic text was only released 2 months ago, and it's only gotten to "mostly feature complete" as of a few days ago) and it hasn't all been combined together into a complete framework yet.

  9. InfluxDB

    InfluxDB – Built for High-Performance Time Series Workloads. InfluxDB 3 OSS is now GA. Transform, enrich, and act on time series data directly in the database. Automate critical tasks and eliminate the need to move data externally. Download now.

  10. lvgl

    Embedded graphics library to create beautiful UIs for any MCU, MPU and display type.

  11. slint

    Slint is an open-source declarative GUI toolkit to build native user interfaces for Rust, C++, JavaScript, or Python apps.

    You forgot to mention [Slint](https://github.com/slint-ui/slint)

  12. yew

    Rust / Wasm framework for creating reliable and efficient web applications

    Isnt Yew (https://yew.rs/) similar in regard of the react like way to update the html document?
