yeah, feathers UI looks cool... dont mind competition at all...

to be honest, i feel like they are pretty different

no native... no "raw" html5

definitely seems good to have options

StablexUI and HaxeUI were the big ones at one point I guess? but the former isn't really maintained anymore

if your looking for an openfl UI, might be a nice option... but one of the reason why haxeui went all "abstract" from v1 was partly to move away from the openfl dependency which (at the time) was causing many issues (like text rendering, text input and battery power)

as far as "native Haxe solutions" go anyway, there's of course stuff like haxe-react to interface with target-native libs

yeah, all true... but its not the same (i think) as native native

and is there a react native hxwidgets? qt? pdcurses?

(not that pdcurses is that useful ofc, but just talking about flexibility is all)

I don't even mean "native Haxe solution" in that sense, just that it's nice to have a UI library whose "native language" is Haxe

rather than having externs for something like react

right, i get what you mean

another huge barrier ofc, and a really bad one is documentation

😦

good examples go a long way towards not having to write much docs

at least that seems to work out ok for Flixel 😄

tons of demos, barely any docs

oh wow

i thought i lost all of this: https://github.com/haxeui/component-examples

its not "full"... certainly some bits are missing, but i thought it was ALL gone

that's quite a few samples!

this especially was the part i was sure i lost: https://github.com/haxeui/component-examples/tree/master/demo

just seeing what state its in... either way, the bulk of it is certainly there

it's funny to me that you accidentally backed it up to GitHub and forgot about it

sweet

to be honest, i was SURE i looked before...

i think i just assumed the worst and never bothered to check :/

a ostrich case of bury my head 😄

I always wondered how are these things rendered on various targets. Is it some native stuff there, some custom render elsewhere? Does inactive scene constantly redraw stuff like imgui would? Whenever I want to make some gui based tool, in the past couple years and dozens of attempts I never really found an approach that worked well. These days I would probably go html, but that's quite complex approach for simple tools (at least for me, not much html/css exp – always end up fighting it to achieve simple things).
