fltk-rs demos

This repository contains demos and examples of applications built with fltk-rs, a user interface library in Rust based on the Fast Light Toolkit (FLTK).

These are usually associated with video tutorials from this on youtube. Also the fltk-rs repo has an examples directory for several standalone examples. These demo apps mainly show interop with other projects in the Rust ecosystem.

Content

The demos and examples in this demo show the ability of fltk-rs to interact with other projects in the Rust ecosystem. The following resources are provided:

• Video Tutorials – To make it easy to learn fltk-rs, a tutorial playlist has been created on YouTube that shows how to use the library and develop applications with it.

• Samples directory – Within the fltk-rs repository is a examples directory that includes stand-alone samples of how to use different components of the library. Examples range from simple windows to more advanced applications with multiple windows and complex controls.

• Demo apps – In addition to the code examples, this demo provides a number of demo apps that demonstrate fltk-rs' ability to integrate with other projects in the Rust ecosystem. These apps include examples of integration with popular projects like Reqwest, Serde, Tokyo, and many others.
