Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What was included in the first release of Xilem, the Rust UI framework? Xilem 0.1.0, released alongside Masonry 0.2.0, was the first published release of the framework and included text input support, AccessKit integration for accessibility, and a TodoMVC-inspired example application. Work continued afterward on a generic View trait and an early Android port. _Rust developers evaluating UI frameworks can follow Xilem's early releases on daily.dev._ --- Tags: [#rust](https://daily.dev/tags/rust) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/this-month-in-xilem-may-2024-edyy8dsks) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"This Month in Xilem, May 2024","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/this-month-in-xilem-may-2024-edyy8dsks","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/this-month-in-xilem-may-2024-edyy8dsks"},"datePublished":"2026-08-31T05:54:36.030Z","dateModified":"2026-08-31T05:55:34.743Z","description":"A monthly update from the Linebender project covers May's Xilem development activity, including attendance at RustNL, the first published releases of Xilem...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--P4t4XyoV--/f_auto/v1722860399/public/Placeholder%2001","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--P4t4XyoV--/f_auto/v1722860399/public/Placeholder%2001","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"Linebender","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Linebender","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/logos/placeholder.jpg","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/linebender"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/this-month-in-xilem-may-2024-edyy8dsks","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"rust","timeRequired":"PT2M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Linebender","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/linebender"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"This Month in Xilem, May 2024"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/this-month-in-xilem-may-2024-edyy8dsks#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"What was included in the first release of Xilem, the Rust UI framework?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Xilem 0.1.0, released alongside Masonry 0.2.0, was the first published release of the framework and included text input support, AccessKit integration for accessibility, and a TodoMVC-inspired example application.
