I've tried #iced, I like the concept but the project feels too immature right now.

Then I tried #relm4, same idea, but based on a tried and true toolkit, liking it much more.

I think I'm finally starting to get it... #rust

#Relm4 is looking for reviewers! 🎉

I'm in love with #relm4. It's really easy to get started with #GNOME applications in #rust now. I feel empowered!

@bragefuglseth are you using #relm4 ?

I'm having a look at #Relm4, and I'm pretty sure I'll internally chant "Input, Output, Init, Root, Widgets" in my head for the next few days

To everyone using #Relm4 for their projects, surprise! 🎉

We just published a VSCode snippets extension 😉

Me and Aaron, the creator of #Relm4, finally figured out the issue.

Done was using tokio::main on its main method, which conflicted with Relm’s own tokio runtime. Some code was being executed on the first and some on the second. This caused the app to hang indefinitely.

This is now fixed!

Turns out it has to do with message passing in #Relm4, still haven’t figured out the issue but I’m closing in on it.

Hello! My name is Eddy, I’m a developer passionate about #Rust :rust:, #OSS and #Linux :arch_linux:.

I’m currently working on #Done, a to do app that combines multiple task providers into one simple experience, I’m also a contributor to open source projects like #libcosmic and #Relm4.

Aujourd'hui je me suis amusé à faire des petites apps avec #rust #druid et #relm4 . C'était fun mais les interfaces proposées pour #rust sont quand même assez rudimentaires . Les #webrender semblent permettre plus de choses mais j'aurais l'impression de faire des apps #electron et c'est pas mon style .

#Done is now able to work asynchronously thanks to #Relm4's support for async components and factories.

@gloopsies I actually think that there would be people using it (assuming that one would be able to build for android by running one command)
To address your second point: from what I can tell rust's #relm4 library aims to make gtk development easier, but that still would not allow hardware access (e.g. for music players)
I just hope that I'll be able to switch to linux on my phone again in the near future (developing linux apps is easier than developing android apps - in my opinion)

And #Relm #Relm4 ist getting more awesome by the day:

https://aaronerhardt.github.io/blog/posts/announcing_relm4_v0.4/

it's pretty much exactly what it says, a simple app that plays a sine wave tone at a chosen frequency (or a specific note), which could be useful if you need a reference to help with tuning an instrument, or for calibrating system-wide equalizers for example

it's written in #rust using #gtk4, #relm4, and #libadwaita, and it's my first real experience doing development for a GNOME app, so hopefully I did well! :blobcatderpy:

behold, the results of me messing around with #relm4 and #libadwaita for the past like... 12+ hours :blobcatderpy:
