I built my first "real" GUI app recently with the help of Codex, as in actually looks and feels good.
I used GPUI and the one-dark theme from Zed and it's super smooth, the code is super easy to understand and I love the way it looks.
Not quite as simple as the VB6 and forms apps of my youth but as a Rust dude I definitely grokked it easily and was surprised how much of it I was able to do myself once the agent had helped with wiring up the scaffold.

GPUI is going to be react for Rust ecosystem. Everyone seems to be on Rust & GPUI bandwagon these days. I've built something similar using Expo. That's the stack that I'm most familiar with and surprisingly the performance of the app is pretty good. Still ironing our few edge cases, but would like to benchmark again Waku. https://github.com/pounce-ai/pounce

So this is basically a wrapper over the existing agents from differnt vendors?
Just poke it a bit and find for codex it use app server protocol too

This is humor, isn't it?

yeah it's basically an alternative GUI for Codex CLI and other clis, I built this because I got frustrated with those Electron Apps performance

I use https://zedra.dev/ which supports a lot of agents, also uses GPUI but has mobile clients.

that is cool, but it seems like a terminal wrapper, quite different here

The lack of commas in the title yields some ambiguity:
- is it an app for creating custom agents?
- do the agents use Rust and GPUI?

unfortunately cannot edit now, but it's pretty easy to find out on the website

I don't understand what is the value of this tool, can you elaborate?

1. better performance than those electron apps
2. a unified app for all the coding agents meaning I don't need to constantly switch between multiple apps
3. I like Codex's computer use so I want to bring it to other agents too (although this feature is not fully implemented yet)

Love GPUI. Will give this a try later!

Native is compelling if it stays fast with multiple agents running. The view I’d want most is one timeline of every tool call, diff, and approval.
