Fluid Create smooth, touch-friendly user interfaces
Cross-Platform Target embedded devices and desktop applications
Multi-Language Intuitive API in your favorite programming language (C++, Rust, JavaScript)
Rapid Design Iterate quickly with Live-Preview
Slint is a toolkit to efficiently develop fluid graphical user interfaces for any display: embedded devices and desktop applications. We support multiple programming languages, such as Rust, C++, and JavaScript.
Programmers and designers should feel productive and be able to enjoy the design and development process. The APIs should be consistent, easy to use, and intuitive, no matter the target language. High-quality documentation should describe the APIs, teach concepts and how to use them.
Fit into a few hundred kilobytes of RAM and require little processing power.
We support many different target platforms, from embedded devices to desktops including mobile and web. Both the user and the developer should feel at home on each platform. The look and feel and experience should match the users' expectations of a native application.

Olivier and Simon met while working together in a small company in Norway called Trolltech, on the Qt C++ toolkit. Here, they gained valuable experience in API design, cross-platform software development and user interface components.
Simon continued in the Qt Company as a lead developer and maintainer of the QtQml engine, while Olivier co-founded Woboq, a software consulting company.
Years later, in 2020, they started the SixtyFPS project and company in Berlin. The SixtyFPS project has been renamed to Slint, and the company has been growing.

In this blog post, I want to explore both directions of integration between Rust and C++ and present some tools we use in Slint.
In the past year we've added various small features to the language, while maintaining stability and backwards compatibility. Meanwhile, we've collected feedback from our users and gained experience by implementing some designs ourselves. We gathered various ideas to improve the language itself and we think that now is a good time to implement these: Since we're still at version 0.x and need to make these changes before we reach version 1.0.
