I just finished reading your `A 2025 Survey of Rust GUI Libraries (13 Apr 2025)` I just wanted to comment about Makepad since I've been following the project for a bit now I originally started following it because of the DSL, I wanted to directly write shader code in my UI

as it felt like an easier way to get started with shaders The main development branch is `rik` Makepad isnt just for the Makepad team, its being used in

Rik has been dogfooding the framework by building an IDE in Makepad, and AFAIK he exclusively uses that IDE to develop Makepad

I'm in their discord and the team is really helpful with questions Another reason to join their server is that the resources to learn about the DSL and architecture, the links are pinned there Also some theming effort going on and again, the updates are posted in discord

Also, thank you for the article, I was really hoping to find a framework which has decent defaults, and has good accessibility as I want to make native GUI applications but I guess I'm just gonna stick to learning egui
