Thanks so much guys for this. The framework is mega impressive. Always wondering his you guys are able to have such mega velocity with the features (it seems there are 50 people in engineering 😅)on the nightly versions i use. I think this helps much!

Nice! I’m building a WYSIWG markdown editor based on GPUI. I will update the dependency to crates dot io soon.

Does it have its own widgets yet? Last time I checked the widgets were all deeply tied into zed.

GPUI doesn't ship widgets at this time, but others have built some. This one is notable: github.com/longbridge/gpui-c…

Genuinely wondering, but why not use another ui framework like egui?

Most of the Rust UI frameworks did not exist when we started building GPUI, else, we might've.

The versions currently posted to crates.io don't have much meaning, the first few pushes were tests. 😅

is there a reason why like so many rust frameworks never have like video widgets? this is not like a dig at gpui or anything its just that theres never any native video widget, but theres always image ones is it because people are expected to make them themselves?

is there any consideration for making it run in wasm on the web ? should be in the dev roadmap so I guess we could right now ?
