Bare Metal Rust in Android
> At least with a language like Go, it somewhat makes sense, and has been attempted: https://gioui.org/
Gio UI is an immediate-mode UI, and immediate-mode UIs map very nicely to Rust. egui is quite easy to use. https://www.egui.rs/

net/http extension to exchange structs
I've been writing a WASM app using gio & I found myself wanting for a simplified web library. In addition I drew some inspiration from leptos server functions. A friend of mine mentioned it has some similarities with next.js

htmx/Go experiences?
I am building the same but with golang and https://gioui.org/

Gonum & Gonum/Plot v0.13.0
This release of Gonum/plot is in sync with Gonum-v0.13.0 and updates the vg/vggio backend to the latest Gio API.

Are there any popular computer applications written in Golang?
Historically, C++. Today, (unfortunately) a lot of (non-game) desktop apps are written in HTML/CSS/JS using Electron. There are projects like Fyne and GIO that aim to make Go a viable language for building large-scale performant desktop apps. My open-source hobby project Supersonic is a music player app built using Fyne.

gomobile no longer maintained
It’s actually extremely easy, if you use one of the actively developed options like https://fyne.io or https://gioui.org for example. Flutter’s Dart may help with real-time hacking of UI but Go produces better code in the long run!

Ideas for GUI libraries?
most X11 functionality can be accessed via xgb|xgbutil (jezek has a current fork). nucular makes use of it via shiny. OpenGL and such libraries can be assumed to exist on those systems, so directly calling those c libraries without cgo is a possibility. Ebiten is currently working on it: purego.

Is golang for me?
There are a few pure go gui libraries. I like https://github.com/aarzilli/nucular
-
golang GUI packages
github.com/aarzilli/nucular should be listed!
-
Is there is good GUI for Golang ?
https://github.com/aarzilli/nucular - pure go for most platforms. no gtk, qt or other dyn linked libraries required. macos and mobile do require cgo iirc.
- Which GUI platform and why?
-
fyne Vs gio
you could try github.com/aarzilli/nucular. For most platforms it is pure go and uses the shiny backend by default. theres also a gio backend. I would try the gio one for android.
