there is python, PyQt6 is crossplatform, runs anywhere, the biggest dependencies python and qt are often also used other things so likely to be installed already

And why would anyone with an existing C++ codebase use that when it’s just a bridge offering a subset of the original Qt6 library written in C++?

Same for Gtk and most other modern UI frameworks.
