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.","title":null,"type":"comment","url":null},{"author":"catlifeonmars","children":[{"author":"0x142857","children":[],"created_at":"2026-08-16T04:46:57.000Z","created_at_i":1786855617,"id":49316996,"options":[],"parent_id":49316863,"points":null,"story_id":49315709,"text":"unfortunately cannot edit now, but it's pretty easy to find out on the website","title":null,"type":"comment","url":null}],"created_at":"2026-08-16T04:16:48.000Z","created_at_i":1786853808,"id":49316863,"options":[],"parent_id":49315709,"points":null,"story_id":49315709,"text":"The lack of commas in the title yields some ambiguity:
