yes -- i perfectly understand this judgment!

i also wouldn't recommend it for any serious huge project, but it's an extremely simple and lightweight solution -- just like the FLTK port --, which even works well in WASM and on the android platform, although not really as perfect as more native GUI solutions. but if you want to stress the opposite side of the spectra, you should perhaps also mention flutter and its simple C-FFI-binding capabilites, which are often used for realizing more advanced GUIs resp. frontends for rust applications on mobile devices.

nevertheless, i really like your list and presentation of the different available solutions.

Then maybe I would surely need to make a take two, with egui and other immi mode GUIs, Flutter, and some others I discovered very recently, such as neutrino (too bad some are unmaintained tho 😥). If you know more that could go on this list, please let me know! I left open for discussion the first post, so maybe we can add GUIs to the list. The more the options the better!
