Cross-platform window creation and management in Rust. Winit is a window creation and management library. It can create windows and lets you handle events (for example the window being resized, a key being pressed, a mouse movement, etc.) produced by the window. Winit is designed to be a low-level brick in a hierarchy of libraries. Consequently, in order to show something on the window you need to use the platform-specific getters provided by winit, or another library.
