Thanks. I did not mean XAML literally though, something like that would be super nice for Linux. The project you linked brings Windows RT as a requirement. But just something with the richness of QT + Rust on Linux would be welcome. I am hearing the rust bindings for QT are just a pain and incomplete. I was hoping for Rust to really offer an alternative for C++ here.

Well, there is Slint in that case, from former Qt devs, but it is still pretty much early days.

Check their online demos.

Thank you, still early indeed but the project looks promising. I am really hoping for the Return of the Desktop in which episode Rust defeats C++ and we all have a sane, safe, free and memory abiding computing experience.
