I am (utterly) slowly working on my dwsktop/java native client and I'm quite sure that it won't get more then 1 user 😂
Discussion
Are you using java or Kotlin with jetpack compose?
clojure.
and playing with multiple UI toolkits. Tried humbleUI, swing and last iteration is javafx.
I might endup with what intelij is using for UI (swing fork i think), but their docs are virtually non-existant.
i also found flutter dialect. that would be awesome, but there's no REPL, so nogo yet
Yeah, none of these toolkits are particularly good. Which OS are you targeting?
linux, but with hope for everything where java works
Gnome or KDE? Because I would strongly recommend using GTK4 for gnome and QT for KDE. Otherwise the app might never really look good enough.
trying hard to avoid native toolkits. I want something what looks same everywhere. even if it sucks.
I kidnof think that people already gave up on native look. since electron ...
Not a good idea. I see tons of those apps. They never look good enough for each of the user groups. You end up conquering no user.
javafx use native look. it's matter of styling. like a web app.
but true.
i have different problems now the UI frankly.
