Using

Prepare your system: Requirements

Include gtk in your Cargo.toml and set the minimal GTK version required by your project:

[dependencies.gtk]
version = "0.5.0"
features = ["v3_10"]

The APIs aren’t stable yet. Watch the Announcements box above for breaking changes to the crates!

Import the gtk crate and its traits:

extern crate gtk;

use gtk::prelude::*;

Create a window, etc.

use gtk::{Button, Window, WindowType};

fn main() {
    if gtk::init().is_err() {
        println!("Failed to initialize GTK.");
        return;
    }

    let window = Window::new(WindowType::Toplevel);
    window.set_title("First GTK+ Program");
    window.set_default_size(350, 70);
    let button = Button::new_with_label("Click me!");
    window.add(&button);
    window.show_all();

    window.connect_delete_event(|_, _| {
        gtk::main_quit();
        Inhibit(false)
    });

    button.connect_clicked(|_| {
        println!("Clicked!");
    });

    gtk::main();
}

Using latest, not published version

Include gtk in your Cargo.toml not as crate but from git:

[dependencies.gtk]
git = "https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk"
features = ["v3_10"]
