Hello all,

I’m trying to get into GUI programming, but am hesitating on using a Python library to make my first barebones program. My goal is to code basic buttons and understand how operating systems implement the way they draw windows for applications.

I have coded mostly in scientific libraries or high-level languages that are fairly simple (Python, Matlab, Julia)… Also am familiar with basic concepts and syntax from C.

Looking for recommendations to start. I am happy to learn a new PL. Interested in writing code for legacy hardware and mobile. Bonus if the codes are general enough to be written for most displays one could interact with.

      This took me a bit to get back to, but after trying iced and realizing that the Rust PL doesn’t make much sense to me, this looks like a good place to start! Thinking in Python is MUCH easier for me.

      Not great to learn programming GUIs without knowing the design process simultaneously.
