WxWidgets is like React Native but for desktops.

It uses the platforms' native UI frameworks. Gtk on Linux.

Audacity the audio editor uses WxWidgets.

And the best part: not a gram of Javascript or web tech!

Actually, not just GTK on Linux. You can use Qt or even plan Xlib frontends as well.

Yeah, I love the idea too. I'm glad they're working on the wxQt backend too! Invaluable for KDE users.
