I think there already are existing mature solutions like you described. Isn't QT constraint based?

- 1oooqooq 2y agoqt lost it's golden momentum taking way too long to relax licensing in the 90s. had they done it before the gtk shift the world would be very different. btw, gtk is based on tcl/tk which i believe is the, or one of the, original auto layout engines
- nine_k 2y agoQt is C++, while GTK is pure C. These are very different languages, and exposing a C interface for C++ code as rich and complicated as Qt is not easy.
- adastra22 2y agoAd yet TFA is kinda an example of that, no?
- nine_k 2y agoQt without slots and signals is a poorer experience. IDK if the Qt Designer can work without them.
- PaulDavisThe1st 2y agoGTK provides slots and signals, through an admittedly baroque C-level implementation. Pretty easy to use, but try not to open the hood.
- PaulDavisThe1st 2y agoGTK has no relationship to tcl/tk whatsoever.
- 1oooqooq 2y agoi see. always felt gtk layout experience similar. but i have much more exposure to tcl/tk than proper gtk.
