The examples in the repository (https://github.com/linebender/druid/tree/v0.7.0/druid/examples) are also a good reference for how to do things.
I've been looking for a while for a GUI library for a while... I've never dealt with writing GUI and I come from a python and C background so this is a pretty foreign kind of programming for me. I've tried out IUI, which I couldn't get to work at all (it also isn't maintained any more :( ), EGUI, which was cool and very easy to use, but had some issues that were bad enough for me to move on to something else. Druid seems pretty cool, but there's no information at all except for what's available on docs.rs which frankly isn't enough for me to wrap my head around how things are supposed to work.

Yeah, it's actually much easier to cross compile from linux to windows. If you only have windows you can use docker desktop and this container to cross compile https://hub.docker.com/r/etrombly/rust-crosscompile . It doesn't have gtk4 support yet though, someone forked it if you need gtk4 https://github.com/MGlolenstine/gtk4-cross
