Good question. You can if you use this instead: https://huggingface.co/spaces/TencentARC/InstantMesh

Yes! egui uses https://github.com/AccessKit/accesskit for accessibility

Switching to wgpu as the default is a definite possibility, but something should be said for the simplicity of the glow backend. wgpu is a big beast, which takes more time to compile, and for a lot of eframe users it is simply over-kill.
…but then again, if you want simplicity and fast compiles, I can recommend the egui-miniquad backend. It's not as fully-featured as eframe, but with some love it could definitely get there.

Hi there - CTO of Rerun here!
Rerun is still in beta, but we think it’s already good enough to be useful. It is built on wgpu, Apache Arrow, my own egui.rs library, and it also runs as Wasm in the browser.
I'm happy to answer any questions you may have!
PS: Thanks for the shoutout fdb!

Hi - CTO of Rerun here.
We just open-sourced Rerun today! It’s still in beta, but we think it’s good enough to be useful. It is built on wgpu, Apache Arrow, my own egui.rs library, and it also runs as Wasm in the browser.
I'm happy to answer any questions you may have!

egui is an easy-to-use immediate mode GUI for Rust, and I just released 0.20. It's a big release!
There is now support for AccessKit (https://github.com/AccessKit/accesskit) which brings accessibility to egui (a first for an immediate mode GUI?).
There is also better table support, nicer keyboard shortcut handling, better looking text in light mode (still not great, but better).
See more in the changelog: https://github.com/emilk/egui/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md
Try it out at www.egui.rs

So-so. There is an experimental screen reader you can enable in the "Backend" panel of egui.rs.
There is ongoing work to integrate AccessKit (https://github.com/AccessKit/accesskit) which will improve things significantly.

So far so good!
Putting the UI in a canvas elements have some distinct drawbacks (https://github.com/emilk/egui/tree/master/crates/eframe#prob...) but for us it is definitely worth it. Having one unified codebase for our web app and native app, and having it all in Rust, is just amazing.
We're currently working on a 3D renderer based on wgpu (https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu) that we will likewise use for both web and desktop.
