How do I make a GUI?
If you want to start with a smaller GUI lib (instead of the bigger ones), you could use Nana (C++ Library), see also User Works using Nana - it uses modern C++11/14/17 (instead of older C++ like wxWidgets or the external macro processor tool MOC used by Qt).

Is there a C++ GUI library that works on all platforms
I’ve seen people use https://github.com/cnjinhao/nana, but the other suggestions are probably better.
- Qt alternatives

Open Source GUI programs in C++
I would suggest https://github.com/cnjinhao/nana . There is also https://github.com/andlabs/libui, although that is C (not C++).

Is there a way to disable the search "feature" inside the save dialog?
This is the GTK file chooser, not to be confused with the gnome file browser (nautilus). The repo is there. The issue for this particular bug is there. My merge request is there.

How many layers of UI inconsistencies are in Windows 11?
GTK and Gnome are almost 25 years old, and they're nowhere as messy as the Windows

How do create a GtkPopoverMenuBar from xml in GTK4?
I'm trying to port a small GTK3 project over to GTK4 and I'm stuck for a week or so at wrapping my head around menu bars. In GTK3 I used `GtkMenuBar` which is replaced by `GtkPopoverMenuBar` as far as I understand, but I don't understand how. All examples I've found for GMenuModel implemented that hamburger symbol which I don't like (example given).

Work towards a standard appindicator protocol has started (with support from GNOME and KDE)

in '~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css' file. Please note this may break some apps somehow. Also, this is not solution, it's only a workaround. It's better to communicate with GTK developers here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk

Any way to make Dolphin remember the last opened directory from within other applications, similar to Windows 10's file explorer?
Yeah, that's the Gtk file dialog. Please file a bug report at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk.

Trying to learn how to develop applications, stuck because of meson and gschemas.
I'm trying to make a text editor in gtk (yes I know there are already plenty of those, but it is a project to learn, not for actual use), and I got pretty far already I would think. I'm basically following the GTK docs for GTK4 and cross checking them with the examples from the GTK git. However I am stuck on something. The current most state of my program is broken, as I get this error when trying to start the program:
