[FAQ] Is this stable library, even for the Android version?

Hi, I am curious to know, is this library/crate stable? Even if I am using this for Android? If it is not stable, is the API expected to change, breaking any code that I write?

Furthermore for Android app development, which is the best Android app development crate I should use that can work seemlessly with orbtk while being a simple library to use?

Hello. I think this library is far from stable, the APIs are likely to change, including breaking changes. If you are making a small prototype for Android, I encourage you to try it out, at least you will edit some code until it became stable.

I don't have experience with rust on android, but I know some libraries supporting the android platform:

  • https://github.com/snsvrno/rust-opengl-android
  • https://github.com/rust-windowing/glutin
  • https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit
  • https://github.com/BrainiumLLC/cargo-mobile

Orbtk wants to support android too, but I did not try out myself yet.
