I’m designing a rust desktop application that is meant to be extended by third-party developers via plugins.

A hard requirement is that plugins can be hot reloaded both during development and while the app is running, without restarting the main application.

It it aimed to be something like VSCode/Obsidian etc. where users will be able to add UI elements as well.

What are my options.
