    Yea, downside of libui and similar - it usually is "single developer library"

    Yeah, there is no easier path than continuing with JavaFX, that's for sure. But nuklear looks cool.

    I dont see nuklear claiming to be cross platform

    Even reaching feature parity with JavaFX would take years though.

    @edvin do you want to rebuild javafx or do want to be able to run tornadoFX in native mode?
  • a

    11/04/2017, 10:12 AM
    they use SWIG

    Good Q indeed. I don't have the answer 🙂 I only know I want to continue evolving TornadoFX as it is 🙂

    so we might have to come up with a UI library with feature parity same as JavaFX

    Gotta run. Back later 🙂

    then only we can use current TornadoFX with Kotlin/Jvm and Kotlin/Native

    libui is not hopeless - last commit was 4hr ago (but not in master branch). https://github.com/andlabs/libui/commits/utflib-and-attrstr

    @msink I see it uses C++ too
  • m

    11/04/2017, 10:24 AM
    No, it uses C++ on Windows and ObjC on Mac INTERNALLY, but public interface is plain C

    @ron what ever UI library we choose, we need to be prepared to support it as well as
