## Summary

The author argues Rust and GPUI, the GPU-accelerated framework from the Zed team, may become the next major shift in software development, similar to React. He says GPUI Kit provides reusable components and styling, and that AI will speed up this cycle. He cites Linear engineer Maciek Pękala's experiment recreating Linear's interface in GPUI with Claude Opus, and Cap's migration from Tauri to Rust and GPUI, which it reports cut video editor playback CPU usage 77% and memory use 88%.

I've seen a few revolutions in software development. 

I think Rust and GPUI are the next big one, and AI will make this cycle much faster. https://x.com/i/article/2120544781201784832
