About the project
A native Rust UI framework with its own GPU renderer, text, layout and springs for macOS, Windows, Linux and the web. Apps can run headless, letting agents render to PNG and drive the UI with scripted input.
Useful for
- Build a cross-platform desktop app in Rust with GPU rendering
- Verify UI headlessly by rendering PNGs and inspecting the element tree
- Hand the repo to a coding agent to build an interface and self-check the result

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.
Stars per day
Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.
Why it’s trending
- Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-09 (UTC), 00:02–01:28: 5100 → 5161 stars (+61). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +1,103 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Over the last two days the pace is 4.5× that of the previous week and a half.
- Elevated gains were measured on the last 3 completed UTC days in a row. Continued growth is not guaranteed.
- The repository is 18 days old and already has 5,161 stars.
- Top new repositories this month: #29.
- Hacker News: “Rune: A native GPU-rendered Rust UI framework for macOS, Windows, Linux and web” — 177 points, 2 days ago.
- About 32 forks a day — people are taking the code.
Measured growth: the last 7 completed days
New stars over 7 days: 4,649. +942% versus the preceding 7 days.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
