Which GUI platform and why?
I know that it's very complex. I think we don't even have a video codec written in Golang. I don't know what MPV is, but I'll take a look. My point is that some features that seem "basic" (comparing to JS/HTML) don't exist in Gio. The video is one of them, it's easy to create a `` on browsers. But, I most want the `blur` and `drop-shadow` features, but I don't know how to implement them. I'm still using Gio, and I'm also trying to add some features (the latest one that I'm working on is to implement [File Dialog](https://github.com/gioui/gio-x/pull/3), for Windows/WASM/Android). I hope that someday Gio implements most features that browsers (JS) have. :P

GoLang and VSCode errors are driving me mad
I also use Go with VSCode on Windows, and I develop a rather large project. If I change many things at the same time, it may hang, so I have to reload VSCode, but that's it. Nothing serious.

Stable and native looking GUI tool for Go?
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
