I built a small app in Go using Fyne.
Never again. Both Gio and Fyne lack tons of polish and features Flutter provides.
I built my core logic in Golang, and then decided to wrap it in an Android app. The GUI feels like it came out of 2003 with limited ways to fix it.
- saganus 2y agoSounds interesting. How did you wrap it in an Android app if you could elaborate?
- 999900000999 2y agoSimple, I basically wrote a script to figure out probabilities for gambling ( I won't open source it since I don't want someone angry at me when they lose money). Then you basically have the UI layer call the script. It's really hacked together, but it works.
- PhilippGille 2y agoA different option is Wails [1], which allows you to write all logic in Go, and the UI in HTML (with any or no web framework). It's like Electron but lighter because it doesn't ship Chrome but uses the system's web viewer instead. [1] https://github.com/wailsapp/wails https://github.com/wailsapp/wails
- buildbuildbuild 2y agoWails is great. Also, see Tauri for a similar lightweight approach in the Rust ecosystem.
