Oooh... Android. Congrats on the release. I really gotta try this out. I like QML.

Wow, Android... looking forward to using Rust for all platforms - and not through a hacky web app.

Yeah, UI with rust is shaping up (generally and especially for Android).

I've never heard of slint before. I've only used iced and imgui. Can someone that has used it tell me its pros/cons?

Is the DSL good? Can I make UIs without the DSL? Does it have good multiline text editing? (Neither imgui nor iced is good at that).

This looks interesting. I’d not heard of this before.
