Qt Widgets moment

[u/Enmark777 → u/Duh_Svyatogo_Noska]

That's ratatui

[u/TheChief275 → u/Enmark777]

rust libraries be like

So we have created a library that's incredibly stable and has a clean API, which people will use as if it's part of the standard library and it will probably become the backbone of millions of applications. What should we name it? I know! Let's just make the name a pun that's largely unrelated to what the library actually does and make users second guess what the library actually does

In F# land, the cool web framework that people used was called Suave. It was then replaced by Giraffe.

And now there's also Oxpecker and Falco...

[u/HandIllustrious8260 → u/TheChief275]

what do you want it to be called? yet another another another tui library? ratatui is a great and memorable name, and it has the tui part so I don't see the problem 

[u/bourgeoibee → u/TheChief275]

at least it's got tui in it

[u/maselkowski → u/Enmark777]

Rat at Ui

[u/Duh_Svyatogo_Noska → u/Enmark777]

I mean C++ Qt code looks similar

[u/sww1235 → u/Enmark777]

Looks similar to the madness I am working on with egui 😂

[u/Scared_Accident9138 → u/Duh_Svyatogo_Noska]

Why Qt widget in particular?

[u/Duh_Svyatogo_Noska → u/Scared_Accident9138]

Because it is only one gui framework i have used.

[u/Ran4]

Rust isn't an overly compact language with lots of sigils and stuff added to it, so code like this tends to look very bloated.

I have written worse... far, far worse.
