If we want a small binary size and only need a UI with basic controls, libui-rs is also a viable option for cross-platform. It binds to the UI frameworks provided by the operating system, so the resulting size is relatively small.

wxWidgets is another cross-platform option, it also binds to native UI framework, but the compilation process is somewhat more complicated.

I prefer GTK on Linux, but I want to give a try on egui. Even though code looks simpler, end result is huge.

At least they are working!
