There used to be a UI library on the Amiga called MUI.

It used a bunch of C macros to let you define the window and all the controls. Was honestly pretty good considering it was like 30 years ago.

It was a pleasure to work with!

Right? I can't tell you how disappointed I was to move to a "real" PC later and find the tools to be so much worse. Like you could position stuff with a GUI in VB or Delphi, but if you wanted to resize a window, it was a real faff to get everything moving about as it should.
