ASCII roguelike project
The library is VTerminal. The master branch contains all of the older AWT-based code and the 2020.11 branch contains all of the newer Swing-based code. Although it's mostly done and working, I'm holding off pushing the full rewrite in 2020.11 to master until I can get more documentation written for it.

Win32 App Isolation
JVM UI isn't so bad. I've written some pretty modern looking UI with it. The sophisticated controls are all there.

I tend to use Kotlin rather than Java but of course Java is perfectly fine too. You can also use Clojure.
If you use any of those frameworks you can distribute to Win/Mac/Linux in one command with Conveyor. It's free for open source apps and can do self-signing for Windows if you don't want to pay for the certificates or the Store (but the Store is super cheap these days, $19 one off payment for an individual). Also supports Electron and Flutter if you want to use those.
From those frameworks you can then access whatever parts of the Windows API you want. Flutter even has WinRT bindings these days! So it's not quite so bad.
