    Do these not work? (I haven’t tried them - non-rhetorical question.)

    Could try looking at wails. I don’t really ever do any GUI programming, especially in Go. But it and Fyne are probably gonna be your best, easiest route. Though, I do know there are also bindings for Qt

    Well, of course it does exist, you cannot use github URL like that, this one works https://github.com/therecipe/qt/tree/master/widgets.

    I know of https://github.com/therecipe/qt, but I've no experience using it, so not sure how well it works. But normally if you feel handy with Go, I guess it should be easier than switching your development stack to C++.
