Hello everyone, I recently started working on a Gtk client for Lemmy written in Rust, called Lemoa and the awesome Relm4 crate.

So far, it supports most of the basic things that do not require a login, like viewing trending posts, browsing communities, viewing profiles, etc… Login features are planned to become added within the next one or two weeks, so that Lemoa can be used as a replacement for the web UI on a desktop.

Screenshot of an example community page:

Id you want to feel free to already try it at “alpha stage” (installation instructions are in the Readme).

Feedback and any kind of contributions welcome!

PS: I’m sorry if that’s the wrong place to post about it, I didn’t know where else to.

    Rust and gtk? Nice! This is probably worth both reading through and trying out.

      Please keep in mind it’s still at a very early stage, so if things sometimes don’t work out perfectly yet, that’s matter to change in the future :)
