ReactNative but Rust? (programming.dev)
submitted 3 months ago by GGORG@programming.dev to c/rust@lemmy.ml

Hi.

Rust can run on anything from web browsers to Adruinos. BUT can you make Android/iOS apps with it? I heard that you can make the backend of your app in Rust and then incorporate it into your Java/Kotlin app, but I'm looking for something like React Native or Flutter, where you can build the entire app (including UI and interacting with native APIs) in Rust without writing a single line of Java/Kotlin.

Does something like that exist? If not, then is anyone working on it?

Oh, and I don't mean I want one of the many libraries which just compile your code to WASM and run the app in a WebView... I want something that lets me make native UIs - like React Native or Flutter.

Thanks

Iced maybe? Not sure about mobile. Second Slint, it adapts the native style of various OSses

Iced is desktop and web only.
Slint for mobile is WIP for Android and not started for IOS.
