qmetaobject-rs
A framework for creating Qt/QML applications with Rust by building QMetaObjects at compile time.
What is qmetaobject-rs?
QMetaObject is a Rust crate that enables developers to create Qt/QML applications using only Rust, without writing any C++ code. It works by generating QMetaObjects—Qt's metadata system for QML—at compile time and providing Rust-friendly wrappers for Qt types. This solves the problem of integrating QML's powerful UI capabilities with Rust's performance and safety features.
Rust developers who want to build cross-platform desktop applications with modern, declarative QML interfaces while keeping their codebase entirely in Rust.
Developers choose QMetaObject because it eliminates the complexity of mixing C++ and Rust in Qt projects, offering a pure-Rust workflow with direct access to Qt APIs when needed. Its compile-time code generation ensures type safety and performance, making it a robust alternative to manual FFI or other binding generators.
