Yeah, I wrote two “plugins” some time ago and the Assembly implementation was shorter than the Rust implementation due to the need to convert from C ABI and back 😅.
I have taken a look at both Slint and Egui before, but they didn’t seem to integrate that well with the Linux desktop last time. I just checked again and it seems like Slint has a Qt backend now which is nice. I don’t really like immediate GUI frameworks, but JavaFX has so far been my favorite framework to work with so maybe I’m just weird.
And yes, I have used min-sized-rust’s tricks for several of my projects, and it’s very effective. However statically compiling just doesn’t compare to using C and linking with the system libraries.
