Adding it as an applet in the new COSMIC Desktop (written in Rust) #333

Open onlyreportingissues opened 6 months ago

onlyreportingissues commented 6 months ago

I saw that it's written in Rust. The new COSMIC Desktop is also written in Rust (current state pre-alpha): https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-epoch

There is also a template for adding new applets: https://github.com/edfloreshz/cosmic-app-template

Would be cool to have it available as an applet there.

The template you linked is not for applets, it's for making full applications using the iced ui framework and cosmic libraries.

A panel applet is definitely doable using the API, but i don't think it should be part of the application itself.

That's how it works on COSMIC. The applets are basically tiny applications, means they can't break the system. Here is a project collection to give you an idea how applications & applets work in COSMIC: https://github.com/edfloreshz/cosmic-project-collection
