Systray is not showing icon.
I am using github.com/getlantern/systray to show menu in the windows tray in my Wails app. It works fine during development and shows icon but in production it throws this error:
-
Toolkit-agnostic system tray in Go (based on getlantern, using DBus for Linux)
thank you. i already saw it and merged it with my local temporary fork. in getlanterns repo is a windows-only PR for left click (WM_LBUTTONUP) - that and middle click (WM_MBUTTONUP) could be added together with the sni versions.

Is there is good GUI for Golang ?
Just gonna give a shout out for https://github.com/getlantern/systray which I use in one of my projects. Tested on Windows and Linux Mint, works great.

I use systray to show web server in Notification Area.

Of course, already exists that library for using Notification Area. getlantern/systray

Go taking too much time building with imports

Sure. My repo is here, the Gtk4 bindings are here, and the Libadwaita bindings are here. Note the version combination in my go.mod, as the latest versions of the Gtk4 bindings break the Libadwaita bindings.
