wxWidgets is worth looking at. I use it and really enjoy using it. Used it for a largish cross-platform job a few years ago which is why I think all the modern garbage like Slack and Electron-based apps is sheer laziness. The forum can be a bit quiet sometimes but you'll likely get a response. Bug reports and stackoverflow questions also might get some help. Much preferrable to me than the MFC stuff I had to use at work for years. wxWidgets is actually nice to use and can have bind/connect instead of macros for event handling, as well as CallAfter(...) for easy firing of events from background threads etc. Great toolkit.
