Rusty file dialogs for Windows, Linux (GTK), MacOS And WASM32.
# Why RFD?
- It uses 100% native API on all platforms, it does not spawn any processes in the background.
- It supports async/await syntax
- And if one day you decide to port your program to browser, WASM support is there for you!
# Example
```rust
// Sync Dialog
let files = FileDialog::new()
.add_filter("text", &["txt", "rs"])
.add_filter("rust", &["rs", "toml"])
.set_directory(&"/")
.pick_files();
// Async Dialog
let file = AsyncFileDialog::new()
.add_filter("text", &["txt", "rs"])
.add_filter("rust", &["rs", "toml"])
.set_directory(&"/")
.pick_file()
.await;
let data = file.read().await;
```
