Hi everyone, dev here. Why nobody talks about tauri Linux WebKit bottleneck? On windows and macOS it works fine, but on Linux... 20 fps while opening sidebar lmao. Sooo... What it means for VOID? More sleepless nights for me, more cups of coffee, and a lot of work. I want to see VOID working perfectly on any os, so I would rewrite it. Maybe with egui, maybe with gpui, maybe with libcosmic, maybe... Idk. If you have any suggestions for cross platform desktop frameworks, leave a comment! So much time thrown in trash(((

This caught me by surprise too, but there is a ticket about it. Still a ways off fr being fixed I'm sure.

I've played a bit with iced but it seems like a bit of moving target and I'm not yet convinced by the ergonomics of Rust to describe a GUI. But it's OK I guess.

Slint looks interesting. I'm hoping to find some time to play with it soon. You can use it for free as long as you mention somewhere that your program uses it.

Thanks! I’ll check slint, but for now I think VOID will move to egui. Hmm, maybe I play with all current rust gui frameworks and take what fits best. The only question is how much time it’ll take)
