moving to GUI from TUI
I prefer giu + zenity for tooling GUIs with either very few or very many elements (i.e. 100's). I use Flutter for when I want an attractive GUI of medium complexity.

Show HN: Goroutine-analyzer: A visual goroutine stack dump debugging tool
I did poke around for a bit, but I really needed the tool, and I knew it would be days of work if I learned a new tool and hours if I stuck with what I knew.
My coworker Andrew did start a similar tool, which is here: https://github.com/andrewpmartinez/grid and uses https://github.com/AllenDang/giu for the UI.
Next time I need a feature I probably take a look at that and see what the model looks like and and how straightforward it is to work with.

Zig for trading - data collection, storage, number crunching and displaying
I then used GIU (https://github.com/AllenDang/giu) which is a Go wrapper around IMGUI - I found major performance issues since my requirements are pretty extreme, I was plotting charts containing 1000's of points and the overhead of calling the underlying C libraries from Go was too much.
