Eoin O'NeillI think I've been sleeping on #iced_rs -- It's nice to see a lot of good work has been done on developing a rust native GUI toolkit.
Now there just needs to be more GUI apps made with libcosmic/icedrs.
dorotaCProject supported by @nlnet keeps going!
@iced
I took #iced in crosshairs and want to make it the best #GUI for #Wayland input methods.
If there's interest, of course.
First results:
Ambraven 
#rustyscript #iced_rs #tokio #rustlang #rust
(I don't thing switching to future or another lib would change much, but if you think I'm wrong please explain)
So...
You might have read me tell you about how I was... not having a great time trying to make #rustyscript and #iced_rs work well together and failing....
Specifically I couldn't find a way to stop the execution of a script. (I have script with long pauses waiting for stuff to happen IRL, and when the script is wrong, having to either close the application or wait until the end of the script is not great).
Turns out... I can't do that. Either because rustyscript's "load_modules" or "eval" can't be cancelled... Or maybe because a function I declare for the runtime use a blocking operation.
I still have some tests to do, but more to the point I need to really up my #tokio game.
I mean there are probably difficult threading stuff happening in both iced-rs and rustyscript...
And I'm trying to tie them up with tokio, maybe adding a level of complexity...
Still, I don't think this needs be such a headhache.
I'm not even sure who to ask for help at this point.
I'm yet again defeated by iced-rs and threads management...
What I want to do is let the application run a js script (for reasons) that can send tcp request to a device (again, for reasons). And I have this working. It's a bit of a mess but it works.
Only now I want to be able to stop the script (without alt-F4 the whole application) because the script can take some time to execute and it's annoying when there is an error in the script.
Only rustyscript doesn't have a mechanism for that, so right now I'm resorting to make a subscriber for the js execution. Which is a pain, but I think I more or less got it...
Except...
