Ladybird: Closing this as we are no longer pursuing Swift adoption
(From: https://github.com/emilk/egui/blob/main/crates/egui/src/widg... , bottom of page.)
This is OO code. It's just that it's trait-oriented, not class-oriented. But that's a good thing, not a drawback. Traits are more precise, more flexible, more type-safe, and don't conflate multiple unrelated concerns in a single feature the way class inheritance does. OO languages like Java support a very similar approach, via interfaces.
You can find similar code in any Rust GUI library, and indeed in almost any non-trivial Rust program.
> Otherwise, there'd be no difference and everyone would call Rust an OO language.
Rust is not a class-based OO language. But the fact that one of its core features, traits, have "methods", and those methods have a first argument traditionally named `self` should be a clue. Trait-based OO is very much OO. Whether "Rust is an OO language" depends on how strictly you want to define "OO" to match the rather obsolete 1970s conception of it.
This is why the first question I asked you was "What OO features are you thinking of that Rust doesn't have?" Because "OO" is a broad label that covers a wide range of different features.
Rust doesn't have "classes", but classes are a 1970s-era mish-mash of a whole bunch of different concerns munged together into a single poorly-factored construct. Now, half a century later, that's well understood, and better solutions exist in the form of traits and interfaces, and related capabilities.
> Like why did ObjC feel the need to add ARC (not GC but similar goal)?
Same reason Rust includes `Rc` and `Arc`. A general-purpose language has to provide some solution to memory management based on reachability. Reference counting and tracing GC are common solutions to that. Rust's static memory management plus RC is plenty good enough for GUI applications.

Still not clear why not just take any webassembly-friendly UI framework like https://www.egui.rs/ (btw compare how much faster it starts).

Building an AI-native multi-model UI with SurrealDB
To demonstrate this, we will create a demo UI using Rust and the Iced crate which is one of the nicest ways to build a UI in Rust (egui is another one, which I tend to use more frequently but Iced has a bit more of a webpage feel which is nice).
