Okay y'all.I much prefer native desktop apps. I prefer using them, i prefer developing in GTK, I prefer having mature, reasonable toolchains.But I'm also developing an app that actually needs to be cross platform. I have Mac users. Might even have a Windows user. Plus, it actually needs to talk to a server. There's not much meaningful it can do without that.So... Is web app what I'm stuck with? Are my passions carrying me to hell forever?

@savanni this is probably not helpful, but i believe a TUI technically fills all of your requirements

I have now made the choice that i will build client server apps for these things, but the clients will be native apps. If i don't have access to the tools to build the app for some platform, I'll hope that somebody else gets inspired to do so, or I won't build the app.I refuse to revisit this unless I somehow get a little team of developers who can tolerate the JS build tools, or I can build a Wasm UI in rust.

Yew.rs appears to require nothing more obtuse than the Wasm target, so maybe I'll start exploring that.Maybe.

@savanni ah! Terminal UI, like what vim uses
