Can you provide any references on the DE being written with Rust + iced? That's huge news in my book. This would be, AFAIK, the first major production UI written with a Rust GUI framework.

Its use of iced is mentioned in the article itself, second paragraph from the bottom. That same paragraph has a link to cosmic-text on github & its Rust code.
