GPUI works well for Zed, but it's built for Zed's needs only. There is no official crates.io udates. Breaking changes land as Zed needs them, and outside PRs often get declined causing a mess of several forks.

GPUI/Zed devs are trying to contact discord to see what can be improved:

> Hi Stanislav, I'm one of the core maintainers for GPUI at Zed, if anyone at discord would like to talk to us about improvements to the framework or to upstream your customizations, please get in touch! My DMs should be open :)

Herdr's new native app uses GPUI for it's mod framework, so hopefully as more apps adopt it, a better community/package/release process builds around it.

Honestly GPUI feels like the closest thing we have to a working UI framework for Rust. That's probably because GPUI is not developed in a vacuum, it actually needs to work at Zed's scale because they ship a real product and GPUI needs to deliver.

I'm very excited to see GPUI extended for general purpose usages in the future.
