@pojntfx@mastodon.social yeah, my desktop app(s) are used across all 3 operating systems. gjs+gtk don’t play nicely on windows and i haven’t been able to figure out why.
a windows hacker friend suggested wpf and since that was the last non-web gui toolkit i used professionally, i was happy to roll with it.
windows guis are objectively insane regardless which of microsoft’s five (five!) toolkits you choose. there’s no contrast. i can’t tell where the window borders and widget borders are, everything is a formless rectangle with sharp edges. gtk on windows looks infinitely better but i can’t get the ui to stop locking up so wpf it will be.
if i ever rewrite to go, i’ll switch back to gtk. glad to hear it’s seamless. ❤️
