I'm looking into Rust GUI libraries myself and playing around with Slint. I think it can use QT as a renderer, but I could be wrong.

Out of curiosity, any specific reason for QT as a requirement? It's certainly a good framework but I'm just wondering if there is anything specific for your use case.

Honestly, I just want to use whatever most of the native KDE Plasma apps use, and that mainly seems to be Qt. The other UI frameworks weren't as good or reliable afaik. Now that you mentioned Slint, I took a look at it, and it seems pretty solid.

Seems like Slint can use the Qt renderer: https://docs.slint.dev/latest/docs/slint/guide/backends-and-renderers/backends_and_renderers/#qt-renderer

I will check out Slint. Thank you.
