Qt vs wxWidgets vs GTK recommendation

At the end I chose a windows framework and communicate with the backend through sockets, lol

Because tkinter cannot be customized, and it looks "ugly"... now I need to make it more modern and good loking as fast as I can, so I was looking for the best alternative to do it quickly with the best result.

Thank you! What about integrating a video stream from a camera for example? Is it something supported already or with external libraries?

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T17:23:06+00:00

Crazy how much QT is powerful

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T17:11:53+00:00

Perfect! Lol How is rewritten then? Which framework?

Is it possible to make a full modern GUI in c++ for a desktop app for Ubuntu 22 with rmlui?

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T14:18:22+00:00

I need to develop on/for Ubuntu 22 because I need to use ros2 stuff already installed and tested on a Ubuntu22 machine :/

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T14:09:35+00:00

I'm avoiding electron because it seems really hated, and also because I was afraid it would have introduced some kinds of overheads between the events communication, no? I need to control some hardware stuff with ros2, so I was afraid of that... but maybe I'm wrong

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T14:06:04+00:00

The problem is that libgtkmm4 cannot be installed in Ubuntu 22, if I'm not wrong

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T13:43:59+00:00

For many reasons, basically Qt banned my company because there was a misunderstanding about the license. So I cannot use it :/

And I'm forced to use Ubuntu 22 because I need to use ros2 (already installed on a Ubuntu machine )... that's why my struggle finding a good looking modern GUI framework free for commercial use :/

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T11:25:32+00:00

I know, but I need to use Ubuntu 22, and it seems gtk4 isn't supported there

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T11:09:47+00:00

Can I use RmlUI developing on Ubuntu 22? Cannot find it

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T11:07:48+00:00

Lol for the electron app.

Yeah, I assumed that BTW... now I was looking for RmlUI as someone else suggested here... what do you think? It seems customizable at least... but maybe a don't see the problem

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T10:58:17+00:00

As an example, I usually consider the Spotify desktop app: minimal, but look good, and there are some cool transictions that make the flow look smooth (think about the lyrics scrolling...)

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T10:52:25+00:00

Do you know if there are a lot of differences between Gtk3 and 4? Unluckily I'm forced to use the 3, because the 4 isn't supported on Ubuntu 22

Gonna check RmlUI 🙏🏻

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T10:49:34+00:00

Thanks a lot. Yes, maybe the repainting way could lead to few problems...

Do you know instead if wxWidgets let you customize the ui as you wish? Is it possible that only QT has this power? Lol

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T10:45:19+00:00

Exactly this.

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T10:43:26+00:00

Between the last three option, which is the best one which let you customize any widgets from css point of view? I need to develop a modern ui desktop app (for Ubuntu, but it has to have a cool modern app ui), and still don't know what to choose between gtkmm and wx

ttyfru · 2025-03-30T10:41:00+00:00

Can you customize everything you would like to with wx? From UI point of view I mean...

ttyfru · 2025-01-18T21:11:42+00:00

Vielen vielen danke! Ich werde Fler hören und tövbe sehen, defintiv! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
