Is there any good/mature/sane library for UI in Rust? I'd love to use Rust for a desktop app I want to write.



This comes up in /r/rust periodically, and IIRC the answer is still pretty much "no". It is getting better, though, slowly. I'm on my phone and too lazy to find a link for you, but search /r/rust for discussions about GUI libraries/frameworks.


Integration with GTK is getting easier and nicer, but there's more work to do.


Does Nuklear fit your definition of sane UI library?

That looks interesting, but I'm talking about something more like GTK, ie something that looks somewhat native and is easily portable across OSes.
