ui2go
ui2go is a toolkit for the creation of graphical user interfaces written in the Go programming language.
It is a prototype that features some interesting concepts, especially in the areas of event dispatching and widget layout management.
Documentation
- White Paper: General ideas and concepts.
- Design Decisions: Thoughts about the design in short notation.
- Source Code
Installation
For high performance and to keep the code small ui2go uses C libraries and relies upon go-cairo for drawing operations.
Debian/Ubuntu based distributions
- go get code.google.com/p/ui2go
- sudo apt-get install libxcb1-dev
- sudo apt-get install libcairo2-dev
Other distributions
I don't know the corresponding package names in other distributions. So I am afraid you have to figure out yourself. go-cairo provides additional information about the go-cairo installation.
Windows and Mac
Not implemented yet.
