Somewhat of a tangent: this project's GUI was built using Wails [1]. According to their docs, "The traditional method of providing web interfaces to Go programs is via a built-in web server." I'm not a Go developer so I'm hoping someone more familiar can comment on this. Are all Go GUIs basically Electron-lite apps?
Wails v1 (which this project uses) uses Webview for rendering it's frontend. You can read more about how Wails works here: https://wails.app/about/concepts/
Also because I'm pretty sure you're going to be the only one to see this post, do you have any feedback on the app?
I have been in search of a good GUI library for go that works well on both Linux and Windows.
What are your thoughts on Wails?
How is the learning curve for people not very familiar with Web technologies? On that subject, does it require any webdev tools to be installed (nodejs, frameworks, etc)?
However, Wails v1 uses mshtml (basically ie11) on Windows, so some features are unavailable.
Wails uses Webpack so you need npm installed when developing your app.
