Slint is a toolkit to efficiently develop fluid graphical user interfaces for any display: embedded devices and desktop applications. We support multiple programming languages, such as Rust, C++, and JavaScript. Find more information at https://slint-ui.com/ or go straight to github at https://github.com/slint-ui/slint
Spotlight
Last week our community member mixedCase shared a screenshot of his cool experiment:
It's a little sample Rust project using Slint. This example is compiled for an ESP32-C3 micro-controller (MCU), runs on the Wokwi MCU simulator, within the web browser. Wokwi compiles the Rust project in a docker container, uploads the binary into the browser, which simulates the MCU and attached peripherals using JavaScript.
We see Wowki as a big stepping stone towards building interest in MCU programming by simplifying the setup dramatically. We look forward to collaborating with projects on Wokwi in the future.

Generated default value without any priority means any real binding will override it.
