I was looking for a UI framework that could easily embedded into other applications. I’m doing all the communication with Wayland myself, then create an OpenGL context from the Wayland surface which Slint renders into. Also Slint has this language you can create UI’s with, which I think is not too difficult for users to learn so anyone can customize their lock screen easily with it.

Looks like it makes rust easier based on a quick 30 second search
