C0D4681386y@ShivamRawat0l GUI applications for what? desktop apps, Linux apps? Mobile apps? Otherwise @hack wouldn’t be wrong with a lack of criteria.

inaba46256y@Codex404 It's not really difficult to use wpf tho. Well if you're doing mvvm it is, but you don't have to. You can even do drag and drop and stuff like that if you want.

@-ANGRY-CLIENT- come on, think about it. The future really is the web, I rather invest my time in those technologies
-
If you're decently proficient at web technologies, consider QtWebEngine or Chromium Embedded Framework running a HTML/CSS/JS based UI. A lot of game launchers and editors and stuff do this. More efficient than Electron.

donuts238486y@geronimo electron only for desktop? React Native for mobile and you learn React too... 2 for one basically.

@billgates ok, I didn't know react native was also for desktop, I thought it was for mobile only.
In fact, I'm getting into react right now, so thanks for the info 👍 -
donuts238486y@geronimo OP didn't say but Electron is just a Chrome wrapper for a webapp right so React works there too? Other thing for webapps is the cross site restriction which RN can get around, can user other npm packages.
