> if there is only a need to build a small simple application, Glimmer DSL for LibUI could be a good convenient choice due to having zero prerequisites beyond the dependencies included in the Ruby gem. Also, just like Glimmer DSL for Tk, its apps start instantly and have a small memory footprint.
Not that this couldn't be used for "real" apps too, but that's not what I need.
I'm a bit worried, though, that the project is described as "mid-alpha" and hasn't received a single commit since January this year.
Could anyone familiar with the project comment on its current state ?
The right thing is separate user interfaces for each platform. More work and more expensive but it's the right way.
Things like this and QT aren’t usually the alternative to “native applications for every platform”, it’s the alternative to “Native application only runs on one platform”, or “Uses Electron”.
