- jenadine 2y agoMaybe because Rust is not a language made to make GUI applications? For GUI applications you are better of with a higher level language.
- overgard 2y agoDon't you think that's a weird limitation though? Nobody says C++ isn't a language made to make GUI applications. If you're going to replace C++ you should probably be able to do the same things at least as well.
- gaganyaan 2y agoIt's not actually a limitation, the ecosystem is just young: https://github.com/iced-rs/iced https://github.com/iced-rs/iced My general point though is that there's still some ecosystem/legacy reasons to stick with C++, but Rust very much fills the same niches as C++.
