both Windows and macOS were built with GUI in mind from the beginning, while GUI on Linux is an afterthought and just kind of hacked onto it.

Skill issue. Just use QT Creator and you're done.

I used GPT to write me a perfectly good UI using JavaScript Flask. You're just a noob.

I've never made a gui for a program before and I had little trouble making one with qt and python a little while ago. Tkinter sucks balls though

>>101583259
It used to be a pain, but UI libraries for convenient modern languages have come out recently, like iced, egui, and fyne

I second this; I'd rather use curses

Nope. C is just as tedious for library writers as it is for application writers, so you're not gonna see much improvements there.

>>101583259
just stick to webtrash

desktop gui is dead in 2024, only retards write gui with gtk/qt/name other shit, the only exception is tech companies that may stick to their/3rd party pro gui frameworks for some internal reasons
