unison VS iup-go

Maybe Unison (https://github.com/richardwilkes/unison ) will match your needs…

For years I had Qt experience in Python and C++. But I found it too heavy to introduce in a Go project. After trying a couple different options (I'm not a web dev) I actually really liked IUP. https://github.com/gen2brain/iup-go

You can check the screenshot from Windows 10 here https://github.com/gen2brain/iup-go/blob/main/examples/sampl.... If you are not using the manifest it will not follow the system appearance and will always look like Windows XP Classic.

I've tried a few different Go gui solutions so far. Coming from a C++/Python Qt background, I wanted to use Qt bindings but found them to be a bit too heavy as a dependency in Go. And I'm not a skilled web dev so some of the other options didn't suit me well enough. But I did actually enjoy using this in a recent project: https://github.com/gen2brain/iup-go

For native controls check https://github.com/gen2brain/iup-go.

That depends on your requirements. I'm currently using IUP for a desktop app (Linux and WIndows). Caveats:

For native UI, you can check https://github.com/gen2brain/iup-go. There are 50+ examples to help you, i.e. show images, buttons, file dialogs, etc.

If I may, https://github.com/gen2brain/iup-go: Cross-platform UI library with native controls.

You can check https://github.com/gen2brain/iup-go. The Cocoa backend is still not finished but it works for basic UI. There is GLCanvas for Linux and Windows.

I recently created a Go binding here https://github.com/gen2brain/iup-go and was amazed how simple API is, thanks to their attribute system. Although they have some controls that are custom, everything else is native. Compared to Qt or wxWidgets, IUP is just a UI toolkit, Qt/wxWidgets is much more than just a UI toolkit.
