As far as I skimmed the text they used bevy for their prototype not for the release or at least not as a whole.

How can such thing happen? Was an account hacked that had the permissions?

I just found this. This is somewhat the fluent style for iced. Since cosmic uses iced that style is available as well.

When it comes to additional widgets, there are additional widgets in the iced_aw crate.

1. I dont realy understand what you mean by tabbed controls. If you mean keyboard navigation, that is directly ahead on the roadmap.
2. Take a look at the macros the iced::widget module provides. This is pretty much a declarative ui definition.
3. In the last version update a new styling system was introduced. It is way simpler then the old approach. I am sure you can create a custom theme that looks pretty much like win10/11.

That is super cool. Can we might simulate it in a virtual environment? If so, would that be the first matrix like virtual world?
