Trying raylib, first time user, what should I know?
About the UI interface, I created raygui a simple immediate-mode UI library, you can also take a look: https://github.com/raysan5/raygui

Building and Linking Google's ANGLE with Raylib on MacOS
git submodule add https://github.com/raysan5/raygui.git vendor/raygui

Ported some of raylib examples to Zig
Added splicit type casting in commit: https://github.com/raysan5/raygui/commit/78ad65365ebae6433f60cf03a09e76b43c46cfa2

Is it be possible to use raygui with GLFW & GLEW?
Yes you can use raygui as a standalone library without raylib. Read for more info: https://github.com/raysan5/raygui/blob/master/src/raygui.h.

Graphic Library for C
Possibly with https://github.com/raysan5/raygui.

A question about how GUI libraries are written.
For your example of raygui, you can just look. It's a single header file (but does require raylib) to work.
-
Are people using Unity to make software?
I'm under the impression that Unity builds have a good deal of overhead. Plus, in many cases, something like raygui (C# bindings) will actually be quicker to develop with. Nothing wrong with Unity, though. The best tool is the one you know how to use, in my opinion.

raylib 4.2 released!
raylib extra libraries cleanup: raylib has been on diet and all the extra libraries included on previous releases have been removed from raylib. Now raylib only includes the original 7 raylib modules: rcore, rlgl, rshapes, rtextures, rtext, rmodels and raudio. But no worries, extra libraries have not been deleted, they have been moved to their own repos for better maintainability and more focus on its functionality. The libraries moved out from raylib repo are: raygui, physac, rmem, reasings and raudio (standalone mode). On that same line, a new amazing GitHub group: raylib-extras has been created by @JeffM2501 to contain raylib extra libraries as well as other raylib add-ons provided by the community. Jeff has done an amazing work on that line, providing multiple libraries and examples for raylib, like custom first-person and third person camera systems, Dear ImGui raylib integration, multiple specific examples and even a complete RPG Game Example! Great work Jeff! :D

I made a shortlist of good libraries for my GUI C project and I want your thoughts and comments.

Immediate Mode GUI Programming
There is also microui, which I like[0].
Which I forked to work with SDL2[1], no guarantees. It's fun to hack on.

What should I use to make GUI with SDL
Otherwise, https://github.com/rxi/microui is small enough that you can hack around. Look at the issue though, there's a bit of unaligned access there.

ImGui or text rendering libraries
For GUI, there are lots, most well-known of course being Dear Imgui, for which people have made auto-generated C bindings. Another mature but a lot simpler option is Nuklear, as others have mentioned. Even more minimalistic (it's just 1KLOC) is microui. There are a lot more, just google "imgui library c".
- A lightweight, simple, fast, feature-filled, text editor written in C, and Lua

Nuklear – A single-header ANSI C immediate mode cross-platform GUI library
The price for the 'lightest' UI toolkit probably goes to microui:
https://github.com/rxi/microui
Just around 1100 lines of C code.
You need to bring your own renderer, but that's the same for Nuklear or Dear ImGui.
I wrote a WASM wrapper for the microui demo too:

I made a shortlist of good libraries for my GUI C project and I want your thoughts and comments.
Good C library list: https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/links/libs https://github.com/Immediate-Mode-UI/Nuklear + C89, no dependencies, public license. 5/5 https://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/iup/ + good tutorial and wiki guides 5/5 https://libsdl.org/ + infinite possibilities - whole library for making games, forums, wiki - complicated, not many C tutorials, need to manage game states... 4/5 https://github.com/lvgl/lvgl + good docs - for embedded systems 4/5 https://github.com/ocornut/imgui + Popular, inspired Nuklear - for C++ 3/5 https://docs.enlightenment.org/api/imlib2/html/ + very efficient, used in Conky - uses X so only for Linux, just for displaying images and text and stuff 2/5 https://github.com/rxi/microui + simple, small - you need to handle your own drawing 2/5 GTK+ - no

I haven't been using Linux that much yet, but because of my experience with Xfce, and because others don't seem to enjoy desktop environments on Linux too much, I want to create my own.
Really? Here's a minimal UI with I believe less LOC than Suckless DWM. It's not a full DE, but I imagine you could probably turn it into one without adding that much more code.
