Those are probably what the parent means by "UI framework." The Rust toolchain does integrate seamlessly with those platforms' native toolchains, using the same binary and debug info formats.

Perhaps this is perception is just caused by e.g. the extremely low bar set by MinGW, which doesn't do any of that despite "supporting" Windows.

Those stacks are more than just UI.

For example since Longhorn failure, COM has become the major way to introduce Windows APIs, since Vista Win32 doesn't get much love.
