Personally very intrigued by Dioxus. I posted this thread the other day about frontend and I can't help but be drawn by the possibility of not having to learn a JS/TS framework and instead go with a Rust framework. But at the same time, Dioxus is still very much behind on the ecosystem side because it doesn't have access to all the libraries and tools and support and online help that popular JS/TS frameworks do. So I'm sort of conflicted. Being a frontrunner comes at a cost sometimes ๐
Only thing I actually don't care much about with Dioxus is the fullstack premise. I'm not much for the fullstack idea. I think there is value in separating the backend and frontend. I feel like in principle it should be possible for many frontends to exist for a single backend. I feel the fullstack approach makes the backend and frontend too coupled and it would probably be hard to write a different frontend for the backend.
Like you, I'm not well versed in the web**** world (self-censored), but from my observations, Leptos appears to be the most popular (community) web rust/wasm framework currently. Why? I wouldn't know.
Why do you say Leptos is more popular? Dioxus has more stars on GitHub.
Look at how many actual projects are using dioxus vs leptos. I believe some. Of the projects listed on the dioxis website are no longer maintained.
GitHub stars can be bought very easily.
