Slint UI Library
A warm welcome to Florian Blasius, who started at Slint this week. Florian brings extensive UI and rust experience and already started porting Slint to Redox OS in his spare time.
EuroRust will be held in Berlin October 13th and 14th. Florian and I will be around and are looking forward to chat with fellow Rustaceans! I will also be presenting how Slint inter-operates with C++ at the conference.

online_editor: Code navigation between files (#1709)

online_editor: Save/restore/reset dock layouts (#1703)
Save the dock layout state into local storage and restore it on next start-up.
This shuffles all the code managing the panels around a bit: They all can get closed now and they can all be opened again via the menu. Their actual layout can also be saved (which will save it into the local browsers storage) and will then be restored on start.
That makes the online editor quite a bit more usable.
