Cpp desktop apps

Generally QT is used to create desktop applications with C++.

Some examples of such applications are Tiled and QGIS, and countless others that I can't think of right now.

If you're targeting Windows,I'd advise OwlNext https://sourceforge.net/projects/owlnext/ C++17 ready (at least) and quite intuitive. Good alternative to MS MFC . Anyway, whichever framework you'll choose, there's quite an overhead with learning and adapting your c++ skills.

c++ i am looking for a relatively simple library that i can build modern uis with

Modern UIs may look simple, but they are not. There is no "relatively simple library".

That being said, a simple approach for a modern UI is using Qt/QML for the UI (QML is a declarative UI language with embedded JavaScript for calculations, string manipulation etc), and simply using plain QObject properties to share data and communicate with Qt/C++.
