fyne VS walk

It would have been helpful to have some info on what exactly fyne is. A quick search brought me here: https://github.com/fyne-io/fyne

The rye version looks much nicer both to read and write.

Go has an io library that enables a developer to access the host file system. Building a GUI application that interacts with the native file system requires the developer to try to make the user experience the same, or similar, across platforms. We want a user to be able to work with the application without having to learn multiple ways to respond to application prompts to open files. Fortunately, fyne.io provides a fairly robust cross-platform toolset with which to accomplish this task.

The CPU monitor dashboard layout was fairly straightforward using the fyne.io framework. Like most GUIs, you create all your display objects and widgets, add containers for structuring the objects in columns, rows, and grids, and then place the containers into a window. I set up some control buttons with associated functions that get invoked when they are pressed. I also set up some label widgets to display specific CPU fields and data. I decided that it would be simpler for displaying memory if I pre-formatted memory in blocks of strings before placing them in containers. I created an UpdateAll() function that the controller called whenever it had new data to display.

If you want to look at something a bit bigger I can also suggest looking at Fyne (the toolkit that I’m working on and using to build the app): https://github.com/fyne-io/fyne

Tauri is definitely a hot SEO keyword!

I had not heard of https://wails.io before for Golang GUIs, only https://fyne.io which renders its own controls.

Fyne is just really ugly for me.. I'm trying to learn more about GIO lately (gioui.org) which seems to have a great potential. However you request is very simple: native Windows Gui. And there are few libraries for that: - https://github.com/gonutz/wui - https://github.com/lxn/walk - https://github.com/tadvi/winc - https://github.com/rodrigocfd/windigo

My experience with gui in golang is pretty bad. I took a project which used https://github.com/lxn/walk , and unfortunately the library doesn't have a good documentation. So I had to figure out a whole lot of things by looking into example snippets or via hit and trial. Moreover, it's platform specific. So yeah wasn't a good deal. By the way, if you are thinking of targetting cross-platform then some HTML based GUI library would be much better choice.

Look at https://github.com/lxn/walk. While it offers a cgo optimization for the event loop, I don’t believe it’s required.
