I’ve played a bit with CLI Rust but haven’t yet tried diving into GUI Rust. The language feels like it aught to be great for making really robust and performant GUIs but when I look at lists like this: https://blog.logrocket.com/state-rust-gui-libraries/ I generally feel disappointed… it’s GTK4, FLTK, or embed a web browser? Am I missing something? Is there a great Rust GUI library that is both lightweight and looks good?

I'm going to say Slint. https://slint.rs

Nice! I’ll have to play with it a bit!
Sigh, I was quite excited to see the embedded stuff with that but then discovered that you need a commercial license and pay royalties to use it in a non-GPL3 embedded device. But that’s the same story as Qt so it’s not all that unusual.
