From the discussion
A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.
How should I think about this, compared to GPUI (https://gpui.rs)? What are pros and cons?
Looks interesting, especially the headless part. Been building various apps lately for ios/ipados/macos for personal use and I would love something like this that would be truly cross platform. Xcode with agent use has been really nice to work with, and t3.code support for emulators has been amazing to use.
...what does this do? Is it just a vibecoded version of https://www.egui.rs/
