About the project

Slint is a declarative GUI toolkit for native UIs on embedded, desktop and mobile platforms. UI is written in .slint markup, logic in Rust, C++, JS or Python.

Useful for
  • Build a lightweight UI for an MCU device like STM32 or RP2040.
  • Create a cross-platform desktop app with one UI for Windows, macOS and Linux.
  • Run the same interface in a browser via WebAssembly without rewriting code.

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
