Blender's GPU Accelerated UI, Decoupled from it's original codebase. Supports Rust, Python, JS, Lua, C & C++. Twice as good as GPUI
BUI takes Blender's long-optimized GPU-accelerated user interface, decouples it from Blender's codebase, and repackages it as a standalone UI library. It's usable from Python, Rust, JavaScript (React/Svelte), C, C++, and Dear ImGui, with installers on PyPI, crates.io, and npm for Windows, Linux, and macOS.
Why now: It was featured on Hacker News with a claim that Blender's UI runtime is much faster than GPUI (Zed's UI framework), sparking discussion and comparison.
Who it is for: Developers building desktop apps who want a fast, proven GPU-rendered UI toolkit without writing their own rendering engine.
