Installation

Slint SC comes as one archive, a tarball or a zip file. It contains:

PartWhat it is
slint-scThe source code of the runtime crate your application links.
slint-compilerBinaries that compile .slint files into Rust code, one for each supported host platform.
slint-sc-coverageBinaries that report the coverage of your .slint code, one for each supported host platform.
Safety ManualThis manual, as HTML.

Every part of the archive comes from the same release. The generated code only compiles with the runtime of the version that generated it (sls.gen.version).

Copy the slint-sc source directory from the archive into your repository, for example to vendor/slint-sc. Then add it to the dependencies in your application’s Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
slint-sc = { path = "vendor/slint-sc" }
toml

Put the slint-compiler and slint-sc-coverage binaries for your host platform in a directory on your PATH. Check that they run, and that they print the version of the archive:

Terminal window
slint-compiler --version
slint-sc-coverage --version
bash
