egui is fantastic for rapid prototyping - immediate mode makes state management simple. Main limitation: TextEdit isn't designed for code editors (no multi-cursor, can't hide folded text). v0.3.0 will replace it with a custom widget. The default styling does scream "egui" - spent time on custom theming to avoid that
