Getting Started
We assume that you are a somewhat familiar with Rust, and that you know how to create a Rust application with
cargo new
. The Rust Getting Started Guide can help you get set up.
We recommend using rust-analyzer and our editor integrations for .slint
files for following this tutorial.
First, we create a new cargo project:
cargo new memory
cd memory
Then we edit Cargo.toml
to add the slint dependency using cargo add
:
cargo add slint@1.1.0
Finally we copy the hello world program from the Slint documentation into our src/main.rs
:
fn main() {
MainWindow::new().unwrap().run().unwrap();
}
slint::slint! {
export component MainWindow inherits Window {
Text {
text: "hello world";
color: green;
}
}
}
We run this example with cargo run
and a window will appear with the green "Hello World" greeting.
