I was going to mentioned Scenic...
The only dependency Scenic needs is OpenGL driver.
I was never able to build Erlang's wx app on my Ubuntu laptop, but with Scenic it just works out of the box.
IMO Tk's canvas widget can be relatively easily ported to Scenic as both based on retained mode graphics, only in Scenic each item on the canvas will be represented by a gen_server.
- yellowapple 8y agoYeah, a one(-or-more)-process-per-widget approach is exactly how I'd envision an Erlangy GUI framework (and is effectively how ordinary Tk works, except with tasks/events processed by an event loop instead of Erlang's preemptive multitasking). Scenic looks like a great starting point in that direction. I wonder how Wings3D does things? I'd imagine it uses wxWidgets, but I never actually thought to check...
