Iced looks like a decent toolkit for writing desktop apps. I wanted the bog-simplest program I could start with. I think this is it. Based on a few tutorials I have found around.
After running cargo init hello I have the standard directory/file layout:
Cargo.toml
src/main.rs
.gitignoreI want to minimize dependencies (to start) so my Cargot.toml is simply:
[package]
name = "hello"
version = "0.1.0"
edition = "2024"
[dependencies]
iced = "0.14.0"My main.rs:
use iced::{Element}; use iced::widget::{text}; pub fn main() -> iced::Result{ iced::run(Hello::update, Hello::view) } pub enum Message { } struct Hello; impl Hello { fn new () ->; Self { Hello{} } fn update(&mut self, _message: Message) { } fn view(&self) -> Element<'_, Message> { text!("Hello, World").into() } } impl Default for Hello { fn default() -> Self{ Self::new() } } |
