# How to use GuiLite?
- For GuiLite user: You could copy GuiLite.h in your application
- For GuiLite developer: You could get well-organized source code, and develop it on any platform(Windows/Linux/Apple)

# For GuiLite user
GuiLite is a header-only library, so it should be straightforward to integrate into your application.

UIcode.cpp:
```c++
#define GUILITE_ON	// Do not define this macro upon GuiLite.h once more
#include "GuiLite.h"

// your code here:
```
