libRocket
-
GUI for software, not games, but lighter than Qt ?
it's a fork of https://github.com/libRocket/libRocket which was started a long time ago.
- [Discussion] What are some old C++ open source projects you wish were still active?
-
Best engine/tools to make games that are purely UI?
I've found libRocket to be a great UI library paired with SDL2 and OpenGL. It allows you to use a subset of html and css to design your UI, while handing rendering off to the renderer of your choice. This gives you the flexibility to add advanced visual effects during the rendering step.
