Open source alternatives to GPUI

One project on starwire does the same job. Ranked by how much of what GPUI does each one covers, read from its README and website. Ties go to the most active.

What GPUI does

  1. Build desktop UIs in Rustcore
  2. GPU-accelerated renderingcore
  3. Layout and styling system
  4. Keyboard actions and input handling
  5. Cross-platform windows

Each dot in the table is one job, in this order. Square dots are core jobs and count double. Full means yes, half means partly. "See the evidence" under a project shows the line behind each one. Coverage is what a project documents, not how well it works or how hard it is to move to. How we score this
