✂️Small: 4,000+ lines of C++ code, zero dependency, header-only(GuiLite.h)
⚡Fast: High Rendering performance, even work on MCU
👫🏻Compatible: Work smoothly with 3rd party frameworks(Qt/MFC/Winform/Cocoa/Web)
⚙️️Hardware Minimum Requirements:

Processor Disk/ROM space Memory

24 MHZ 29 KB 9 KB

Processor	Disk/ROM space	Memory
24 MHZ	29 KB	9 KB

Cross platform

Supported OSes: iOS/macOS/WathOS, Android, Linux, Windows, RTOS... or MCU without OS
Supported languages: C/C++, Swift, Java, Javascript, C#, Golang...
Supported 3rd party libraries: Qt, MFC, Winforms, CoCoa...

Hero features

☁️Cloud + IoT Solution: master your IoT business all over the world
🔣Multi-language, supports UTF-8;📀Playback Video
🔨Toolkit for building font/image resources
📐Layout GUI WYSIWYG
📊Code Telemetry and Analysis in real time
📦Supports 3D and Web
🐋Run in docker with a single command: sudo docker run -it --privileged -v /dev:/dev-share idea4good/gui-lite:latest bash /run.sh

Easy to learn and support

Even a C beginner could master GuiLite quickly. The source code only uses basic C++ features (class, virtual function). We chose C++ as it could make the code size significantly smaller and easier to read.
