  • Native Windows GUI

    A light windows GUI toolkit for rust

    Assuming by "nw-gui" you mean native-windows-gui, that is by far the most user- and dev-friendly GUI library available for Rust as far as I know.

  • relm

    Idiomatic, GTK+-based, GUI library, inspired by Elm, written in Rust

    If you’re interested in a cross-platform GUI library, I think Relm is pretty good. It’s a wrapper over GTK that makes writing rustic code easier.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • winrt-rs

    Discontinued Rust for Windows [Moved to: https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs]

    There’s also the official Windows Runtime projection for Rust here.
