Getting Started

Using Slint in your projects needs two components:

1. .slint files, which contain a textual description of the user interface, written in the Slint language.

2. The programming language of the project where you embed the .slint files.

   • Slint supports C++, Rust, and JavaScript.

There are three different pathways to get started with Slint:

1. SlintPad - Use this browser-based tool to get a feel for the Slint language.

2. As a UI Designer, working with Slint files locally, we recommend the following combination of software tools:

   • Visual Studio Code

   • The Slint for Visual Studio Code Extension

3. As a Software Developer, integrating Slint into a new or existing code base, follow the quickstart and then for more in-depth next steps read the language-specific documentation:

   • C++

   • Rust

   • JavaScript
