  • rust-xcb

    Rust bindings and wrapper for XCB.

    • rust-xcb and x11rb. As a bonus there is also breadx that is less popular but seems to have async support (although not sure how useful that would be).

  • breadx

    An implementation of the X Window System Protocol in Rust

  • x11rb

    X11 bindings for the rust programming language, similar to xcb being the X11 C bindings

    • There is a comparison page in x11rb but it seems to be outdated w.r.t rust-xcb and the unsafe claims, so would appreciate other perspectives.
