egui is cool but it's an immediate UI kind of thing, that's usually used in video games as you're constantly re-rendering the whole thing anyway.

A more fitting UI library would be Iced, which is also what System76 is building their COSMIC desktop environment on.

It does claim to support the web too, although not via HTML which brings some accessibility concerns. I'd expect performance to be very good otherwise.
