Stable and native looking GUI tool for Go?
10 projects | /r/golang | 14 May 2022

You might want to look at github.com/visualfc/atk. Tk is a toolkit traditionally considered unsexy but it is 1) rock solid 2) cross platform, while using native Win32 API to render its widgets.

I think interp layer of atk is a good entry point for minimal API. Then you can reuse higher level API of atk and check by demo.
Golang GUI?
8 projects | /r/golang | 4 Feb 2021

For creating simple desktop apps for (mostly) my own use, the ones I found working best for me where two binding to existing ui toolkits: - Tk: https://github.com/visualfc/atk - and a small custom wrapper around fltk I've written Both have some issues, but e.g. fyne and some of the immediate mode ui's I've looked at where lacking some features, and I couldn't build therecipe/qt (I don't event know if it's still maintained).
