So I’m looking at trying am Immutable Linux Desktop (uBlue Aurora probably). One thing I’m not clear on is how to run GUI apps during development. From what I understand I should create a container with distrobox, install my toolchains in it and start developing. I’m used to containers for CLI and server work, but I’m not sure how it applies to the GUI (Wayland / KDE).
If I do a cargo run inside distrobox for a Rust GUI project will it just work?
I saw that I can ‘export’ apps, but that is for already built executables whereas I will be building and rebuilding them.
The executable that I would be running is
cargo(the rust build tool) but I want that inside of a container. I couldcargo buildinside the container and then execute the output binary on the host but then I lose things like hot-reload.
