What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded
Rust bindings and wrappers for GTK+ 3, GDK 3, GLib, and Cairo, part of the gtk-rs project. This repository is deprecated and has been superseded by gtk3-rs (and gtk4-rs for GTK 4).
Use cases
- build a desktop GUI application in Rust with GTK 3
- create cross-platform graphical interfaces using Rust
- use GLib and GObject from Rust code
- render 2D graphics with Cairo from Rust
- maintain a legacy Rust app that uses GTK+ 3
When to choose
- you must maintain or extend an existing Rust application built on GTK+ 3 bindings from this crate
- you are pinned to GTK 3 and cannot migrate to gtk3-rs or gtk4-rs
When to avoid
- starting a new Rust GUI project - use gtk4-rs instead
- you want actively maintained bindings - this repo is deprecated and its latest release was in 2020
- you need GTK 4 features - use the gtk4 crate
