(I am the maintainer of dioxus native, and also posted the comment above)
So:
- The initial version was released over a year ago (3 month is the most recent patch release of the stable version).
- It is part of the Dioxus project (https://github.com/dioxuslabs/dioxus) which has been going since 2021 (but the other renderers are web/webview based).
- The native renderer (https://github.com/dioxuslabs/blitz) has been under development since December 2024 (building a whole new web engine is just a big project).
You're ultimately kind of right that it's not as established as 1-4 in the list. But I think it justifies it's place with the other frameworks lower down the list as one of the lesser-known frameworks that compete technically with those further up the list.
Is dioxus native usable in android already?

It's absolutely in good faith. There are two kinds of GUI framework in Rust:
- Those people have poured consistent time and effort into over a period of years
- Those people vibe code into existence in a couple of weeks and typically abandon after a few months.
Nobody wants to waste their time on the latter, so I am pointing people to the former. Yes, mine is one of them, but that doesn't make it bad faith, it just means I know what I'm talking about.
You've the patience of a saint to respond so politely to abrasiveness
And thanks for sharing the list and saving me from clicking on yet more half baked vibe spam!
