that's where the language choices really matter I think. Lua as a programmable configuration language shines because it makes it quite easy to make environment specific changes. Also I think underrated side effect of Rust. A lot of the modern rust tooling has great cross platform support probably because there's a good abstraction layer between language and OS.

- blt 2y agoIt's not just the language/library: build systems are also a big obstacle for x-platform GUI apps in C.
