Current state of GUI development in Rust?

Hi All,

Just a quick update on skryn. I have been busy the last few months reworking the TextBox and Button and I'm pleased to tell you that they both now support RTL and LTR languages.

Further more, you can have a mixture of RTL and LTR text in a paragraph and the flow corrects the way it is displayed.


Same paragraph resized displaying the mixture of RTL and LTR correctly.

There are a lot more things to be done and a lot of tweaks need to be made, but it is getting to a place where I'd liek to use this myself in my own applications slowly.

If you end up trying this please let me know if you find any bugs or features that you'd like to see. It is also now published on crates.io.
