But no, none of the Rust-only GUI libraries are mature yet.
- hyperpape 3y agoIt’s surprisingly hard for me to tell if this is sarcastic or not. I can imagine both ways: 1. “People implement major things in it, it’s mature, obviously.” 2. “People have implemented these things, but it requires care/attention/hacks that wouldn’t be required in a mature framework.”

- Vinnl 3y agoYeah that's exactly it, they're aiming for a 2024 release, and due to the nature of that being in the future, it's unclear both whether they will make that, and how stable/mature that first release will be. So my link demonstrates that someone is using it, not that it's mature.
