Yeah in hindsight I think I was conflating two distinct things:
1) Windows system APIs
2) the Windows GUI system
#1 is what the OP was mainly talking about and I can see now that it's relevant to Electron, QT, video games, etc
I am still curious about the state of #2 though
- pjmlp 6y agoI replied on another comment regarding #2. In Europe that are plenty of jobs for native GUIs, and most OSes aren't Linux, the whole stack is used together, Qt won't work without GUI APIs, even if it happens to fake its own controls. Game APIs are also part of the GUI stack.
