Druid is a data-first, Rust-native UI toolkit for building cross-platform desktop applications, inspired by declarative frameworks like Flutter and SwiftUI. The project has been discontinued and is unmaintained; its successor is Xilem.
Use cases
- build a cross-platform desktop app in rust
- rust gui toolkit for desktop applications
- declarative ui framework in rust
- data-driven ui with rust
- maintain an existing druid application
- learn how druid works before moving to xilem
When to choose
- you are maintaining an existing Druid application that fits its supported feature subset
- you want to study its architecture as background for Xilem
When to avoid
- starting any brand-new application, since there will be no new features or bug fixes
- your app needs accessibility or 3D support
- you want a long-term-supported Rust GUI toolkit - use Xilem instead
