This crate is meant to allow using KI18n with Rust and [qmetaobject-rs](https://github.com/woboq/qmetaobject-rs) crate. +# Motivation +I love KDE. I have been using it as my primary DE for quite a while. I also like Rust Programming Language. Currently, it is nearly impossible to use any KDE frameworks from Rust without some C++ FFI. While FFI is never easy, complexity with C++ is exponentially more than plain C due to the Object-Oriented nature of C++, which is entirely different from Rust's somewhat functional design. + +If possible, I would like the Tier-1 KDE Frameworks to be usable from pragmatic Rust in a somewhat natural fashion. I am currently interested in KDE frameworks that are usable with QML. + # Requirements This crate requires KF5I18n to be installed or at least present in the system. ## Ubuntu
