Freya is a cross-platform GUI library for Rust powered by 🧬 Dioxus and 🎨 Skia.

It does not use any web tech, check the Differences with Dioxus.

⚠️ It's currently work in progress, but you can already play with it! You can join the Discord server if you have any question or issue.

fn app() -> Element { let mut count = use_signal(|| 0); rsx!( rect { height: "50%", width: "100%", main_align: "center", cross_align: "center", background: "rgb(0, 119, 182)", color: "white", shadow: "0 4 20 5 rgb(0, 0, 0, 80)", label { font_size: "75", font_weight: "bold", "{count}" } } rect { height: "50%", width: "100%", main_align: "center", cross_align: "center", direction: "horizontal", Button { onclick: move |_| count += 1, label { "Increase" } } Button { onclick: move |_| count -= 1, label { "Decrease" } } } ) }
