UI and Declarative Programming in Rust

The graphical user interface (GUI) is the cornerstone of most modern applications. It is often the main interface to use a computer program, providing a bridge from your software to someone out there in the world. Therefore, to best represent our hard-earned application logic, a GUI should be responsive, robust, and accessible.

So let's use Rust, a modern language for efficient and robust software! Well...

Why are user interfaces so hard for Rust?

I've been working on open-source Rust projects for about 8 years now,

Buffer<uint> Input;
RWBuffer<uint> Output;

//returns the index that this value should be moved to to sort the array
uint CuteSort(uint value, uint laneIndex)
{
    uint smallerValuesMask = 0;
    uint equalValuesMask = ~0;
    
    //don't need to test every bit if your value is constrained to a smaller range
