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.
Unrelated but there is microui, a 1100 loc library in ansi C for a basic UI.
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.
This reminds me. I got a search engine to build.
What's React?
React is a Javascript based web development programming language developed by Facebook to make pages run faster and better. I learned it as part of a MERN stack full web development course.
Javascript based web development ~~programming language~~ UI library
On the other hand React Native is a JavaScript based development language developed by Facebook to make applications run slower and worse.
Used for rendering UIs on a Document Object Model. JS was a mistake.
I'm an elitist asshole and I hate that people say "react dev" when really it's "web dev that uses react"
Is this distinction really all that useful?
I suppose you could write a react app that doesn’t use “the web”? But you still might just say they are a react developer.
There are also react devs creating the windows 11 start menu.

I'm still waiting for the day we get a proper alternative to JavaScript.
If I had to make one, it would have a Bash-like syntax
