What language is this UI library targetting? I could not find this on the main page.
- adzm 2y agoit is written in C# though they seem to have plans to create libraries for a variety of platforms. that said, there is no code or interactive demos available
- PaulHoule 2y agoThese examples are in C# https://pangui.io/#hello-world https://pangui.io/#hello-world but they claim it will be "language agnostic" and C++ is the next target, but maybe that just adds to the vagueness.
- neonsunset 2y agoIf it stays written in C#, I'd imagine it will be NativeAOT-based with C exports on top of which the bindings are based for other languages. Or not, I'm watching PanGui for some time and hope it releases but no news so far.
- FrancoisBosun 2y agoC, C++, C#, and probably Rust. There’s a section about that. There’s a link to the FAQ I. That section.
- eviks 2y agoc#,c++,c,Rust,... see the Language-agnostic section
- 999900000999 2y agoThis is the biggest red flag, they want to support a bunch of different platforms at once over just focusing on one or two
- mikepurvis 2y ago“All these examples are written in C#, and are created using our Win32 platform integration. As such, they are using an API that is idiomatic to C# and made to feel nice to use in specifically C#. Keep in mind that PanGui is designed to be language-agnostic and will be transpiled to many languages, with C++ being the next target language. Where necessary, the user-facing API will always change to feel natural to use in the target language.” Unsure if the whole thing transpiles or it’s C bindings with a transpiled shim. Either way, not having the source to inspect makes the package a tough sell to most here, I’d imagine.
