@@ -8,17 +8,17 @@ that's a good question; *are* we GUI yet?
Are We GUI Yet has a list of libraries for building GUIs: let's go through them in alphabetical order and see if we can build a simple to-do list with them without too much struggle.
some notes before we get started.
-1. this is all extremely subjective.
-2. the only ui toolkits i have used and not hated are Swing (i know), Electron (*i know*), and wxWidgets, which doesn't have Rust bindings because Rust bindings to C++ libraries are generously described as a nuisance to create (i've tried, and i'm writing this post instead of trying harder).
-as such, i might be using some of these wrong, who knows.
-3. i use windows, and so anything that's a nuisance to set up on windows is not going to fare well regardless of how cool it is once you get it working.
-it could be the best thing since sliced bread or Meteor on release and i wouldn't care.
-do not @ me.
-4. the people who wrote these libraries have done more than i have to make the rust gui ecosystem not suck, and i don't want any of this to come across as suggesting that they suck and their work is bad.
-the strongest thing i want to say is that a library is not designed in a way that i would want it to be designed, or that it doesn't work for me.
-doing this shit at all is really goddamn difficult, and i don't want to minimize that by being unhappy with the results.
-5. i started drafting this post in early July 2020, and finished it in late August 2020.
-some things may have changed in the meantime while i wasn't paying attention.
