> The UI compiles to Rust

Right, so not rust.

Languages that compile to c are not c.

Languages that compile to rust are not rust.

> QML was the inspiration

Yes, except you invented a new programming (1) language unnecessarily.

Whatever.

We'll have to agree to disagree.

If the programming language you write is not rust it is not a rust ui library.

Slint requires you to write your UI in slint. I havent used it much, but Ive used it enough to know that this:

> The DSL only describes the GUI

Is about as disingenuous as you can get.

Thats like saying that javascript only describes the GUI of a website, a backend rust website is really just a rust application. Really you're building in rust. React is really a rust UI library at heart. <—- obviously BS.
