layout2d

Preliminary, GridBag-like 2D layout engine (no constraint solving, only direct solving)

May be replaced by a better system in the future. For now, you can construct UIs with it, in order to solve Rusts horrible GUI situations.

layout2d is an immediate GUI method, activated whenever there is an event. Caching, etc. help with keeping the performance down to an acceptable level. Layout is usually done in nanoseconds, rendering is more of a problem.

Renderer should be seperated from layout later on and support multiple backends. This is not yet the case.

Note: As I investigated, there are better solutions to making a scalable GUI. There are: Simplex method, Cassowary and the inner point method (all used to maximize a system of linear equalities or inequalities, given an objective function). These methods should be used for constructing a UI properly, however, they take time to implement.

This a preliminary UI system. Please don't use it yet.

lib.rs:

Library for UI development

This library features a UIScreen<T> where T is your data that you want to store in the UI. You can for example, have a function callback in the UI.

This library doesn't do any drawing, only layout.
