> Sycamore is a next generation Rust UI library powered by fine-grained reactivity.

It's not clear on the landing page that this is for in-browser UI, as opposed to desktop UI and/or mobile UI.

I would make it completely unambiguous that Sycamore is for web applications.

Ok I've modified it slightly.

But Sycamore does have ambitions to have native GUI support as well. I'm currently looking at GTK, Iced, and GPUI and see if it would be possible to add Sycamore support. This would make it possible to create GTK, Iced, or GPUI apps using building blocks from Sycamore.

Once upon a time there was iced_web https://github.com/iced-rs/iced_web

FWIW, as an iced user, personally I'd prefer to write iced and use something like sycamore to build for the web rather than the other way around

		I'm personally not to big of a fan of the Elm pattern for UI. Although it can be quite elegant, most of the times, it ends up being quite verbose even for simple things. I feel like combining the drawing layer from one of these existing native UI frameworks with Sycamore could be interesting in reducing some of the boilerplate with GTK, Iced, GPUI, etc...
