slint = "0.3.0"

And in your main.rs:

slint::slint!{
    HelloWorld := Window {
        Text {
            text: "hello world";
            color: green;
        }
    }
}
fn main() {
    HelloWorld::new().run();
}

The slint crate documentation contains more advanced examples and alternative ways to use this crate.

To quickly get started, you can use the Template Repository with the code of a minimal application using Slint that can be used as a starting point to your program.

cargo install cargo-generate
cargo generate --git https://github.com/slint-ui/slint-rust-template

You can quickly try out the examples by cloning this repo and running them with cargo run

# Runs the "printerdemo" example
cargo run --release --bin printerdemo
