> does patreon have alot of adult content? Wasnt aware... i figured the other big part is artists and video makers @User The project I'm on that I've repeatedly cautioned is NSFW when doing bug reports was funded via Patreon for the original creator. AFAIK the stand on github historically has been not to use it to host pornographic imagery, but they don't seem to go to any real lengths to stop pornographic code or literature, so to speak. I did a search on github when I took over the codebase - compared to other projects there, I'm pretty clean and family friendly, and that's disturbing and fundamentally wrong. But then, several things are necessary to host adult content that should probably be open sourced, too. So it's a tightwire, isn't it? "Should we suddenly ban code because it deals with adult material?" ... I don't have good answers there, and the language necessary to describe things doesn't get easy if you have to speak around what you're actually doing, either. It's hard to write good code if we can't talk about what it's doing; it's hard to make it open source if the major platforms suddenly decide to blacklist it. To my credit, I've been slowly disentangling this codebase so that the engine and the content are distinct enough to stop hosting the content part on github, but these things take time 😦 I'm just happy they've not come after me while I'm working on that off and on these last couple years.

> I honestly feel a bit scummy opening up to donations. Out of principle I don’t want to ask for a cent for my library @User Speaking of, my policy is "I'll open to donations when I feel I've earned it". For me, that's feature parity with the original engine; for other projects and other people, that would look different.

To target a standard native windows system, which backend should we use for haxe-ui?

no game rendering required

preferably able to develop for on osx as well

I guess the "best" option is widgets but I remember trying to get that shiz setup a long time ago and failed

just about to head to bed, but yeah, wxWidgets is your best bet, haxeui-qt is a thing, but its experimental still

wxwidgets is super easy to setup, less so on windows (osx, *nix is simple as), but not hard

download source, build, make sure the test projects run (wx), voila

okay, running through the osx setup now

windows can wait I guess

you on OSX? its super easy

github.com/haxeui/hxWidgets

for now yeah, but I got a freelance job and it funnily enough gives me a chance to mess with haxeui, but he runs on windows

Is this how it's meant to look?

nope...

but its running though

what version of wxwidgets? My guess is your OS is darkmode?

wxwidgets I think was installed as a dependency so it may not be up to date

will update that to git

OS is in darkmode

yeah, you'll need a later version of wx for darkmode support on osx

my advice is just use the git version

oh compile wxwidgets from source as well?
