areweguiyet's Issues

Publish command contains a panic; cache not written

The CLI logs errors when it finds an issue with any of the source files.

The publish command currently panics if there are errors.

The problem with panicking is that the cache is not written when there are errors! This should be fixed.

Tag suggestions

Please let us know if you have any suggestions for tags! We should do a pass on all the crates currently listed.

My quick thoughts:

  • Soft real time suitable
  • Flexbox-like layout
  • Functional UI
  • DSL (these libraries use a custom DSL for layout or formatting)
  • Backend agnostic
  • Backend
  • Native

No automatic redirect to HTTPS

I was using the site recently and I noticed the webserver doesn't automatically redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS. Might be a good security feature to implement.

How should Approaches section work?

The original plan for this repo in May 2018 was to simply collect notes on how one might approach a GUI in Rust, and then catalog the benefits and drawbacks of each approach.

Should we still attempt to do this? Or should it be relegated to blog/news posts?

It may be beneficial to have a central community hub for recording developments in a chapter by chapter "book" form. The "book" would describe different approaches without "choosing" one.

The book would evolve over the coming months and years as people learn what works, what doesn't, what's fun, and what's not. It would ideally contain lots of working code and reference a lot of active projects as examples.

List of crates not loaded

The list of crates is not loaded, and this error seems to be caused by the version returned by the CDN. It returns the version 3.2 instead of the version 2.6 before.

Error

Uncaught TypeError: Vue.component is not a function
    <anonymous> https://www.areweguiyet.com/main.js:5

areweguiyet https cert errors

I'm not sure who best to report this to, so filing as an issue here. Feel free to route and close.

If I open https://areweguiyet.com/ I get a cert error, saying it's a *.github.com cert (and also including *.github.io). This is probably a very simple misconfiguration.

The http still works, but I always try to prefer https.

chat/forum

Do we want something like an official forum and/or chat? What other options do we have to bring people(users/developers/potential contributors) together to show of the current stage of their lib, app and to contact us. Making issues has a high barrier if you don't want plan to participate in a serious manner and just want to say hello and hang around.

Document where we are so far.

A number of potential approaches to GUI, potential problems and potential solutions have been raised in discussion. Those need to be documented for reference.

Site is pretty outdated

In Approaches section, it doesnt talk about azul.rs and other GUI frameworks, and doesnt haves a section for existing Rust graphical apps.

Add a screen reader support category

If we're going to consider rust ready for use with guis, we would have to support screen readers, and if your site helped filter by that it would be very helpful. Thanks!

Context: I wanted to use rust to make a simple gui app but I wanted one that actually supports screen readers well. From my investigations this is a very limited subset of the gui libraries. Only Qt and Gtk as far as I can tell are fully screen reader accessible which is a shame because I started my search to avoid those two engines.

Consider adding "Seed" framework

https://github.com/seed-rs/seed is an Elm-inspired web frontend framework, written in Rust and compiled to WebAssembly.

I would really like to see this framework be mentioned on the areweguiyet.com page, and it is already fairly developed and shows great efforts. Here are some example sites written using this framework:

https://seed-rs.org/
https://realworld.seed-rs.org/

https://github.com/seed-rs/awesome-seed-rs#examples

I would like to add this to this website, so if there is anything next to the README of this repo, that I should know, or any objections, please let me know :)

Sketch examples of use case code.

Without regards to implementation, we can sketch versions of what we'd like the API surface to look like, or just plain simply the available possibilities. This can guide initial investigation into both ergonomics and feasibility of implementation.

Add github stars next to each crate

This looks like something that @shivshank proposed in #1 but I don't see any other mentions of it. I think this would be helpful to see which GUI crates are actually being used. I suppose a crates.io download count could proxy for this as well.

If others want this, I'd be happy to try to contribute to push it forward as well.

Thoughts?

Page should not require the browser to fill the entire screen in order to be readable

So the page apparently uses flexbox for a pleasant resolution independent layout. Nice. Ironically the main body of the page has a fixed width of 1200px, defeating the point of using flexbox in the first place and causing the text to get cut off on my laptop. Unless I effectively fullscreen my browser, that is. I get that modern web design is meant to "encourage" people to interact more with their browsers, but for people stuck in their windowed ways this is quite bothersome.






/s, but the rant still applies

Potential Upcoming Improvements

I want to flesh out V2 plans for the site more, but here are some good ideas courtesy of @mardab we should consider doing ASAP.

  • Store all crate JSON TOML as separate files
  • Flag crates that should be delisted (initial criteria: no active branch and no crate publication within last year)
  • Highlight examples - link to examples directory if one exists in crate repo, and add support for listing other demos
  • Add some sort of checking if a listed example is too far out of date
  • Develop some system for metal ratings - a possible alternative is alpha | beta | prod and version badges - we'd define some sort of standard where crate developers can include some dot file in their repo to specify what they wanted to be shown as. TODO: Research prior art.
  • Add pipeline to check if someone is a contributor to a crate they're adding (this is less relevant if we start indexing crates.io directly)

Can I contribute my library to areweguiyet?

I am currently working on a library to improve GTK app development with rust here. I'd like to place it here to make others aware of it if thats possible.

If you think my library is of any interes I would like to contribute it as stated in the Contribution section in the readme.

This repository needs new maintainers!

It's ok to discontinue projects, but this should never happen silently.

Yet, this repository has been more or less unmaintained for over a year now.

This means stale links and an outdated representation of what's the actual state of GUI development in Rust.
And to fork is not an option, as the domain is important, too, and a lot of resources already link here.

@pythoneer and @dxenonb what are your thoughts on this situation? If you are not willing to maintain this repository, please ask for others to help instead of letting this project become stale silently.

Add 'mobile' category

Some libraries gonna support Android/IOS in the future (OrbTK, Slint, Tauri...).

upd:
OrbTK is dead
SixtyFPS is now Slint
