Discontinued because? #15

Hi, I'm wondering, what's the issue/cause so this project discontinued?

Probably because GUI libraries are extremely hard. I'd point you towards shiny but that's also dead. Currently if you want a material UI you can use this project as a starting point or come up with an immediate mode internal library, which is much more easy to reason about, but you trade off implementation complexity in the library straight over to application code.

The code here is the proverbial prototype that's getting tossed out; it's in the process of going through a rewrite. You can see some of the code in package dasa.cc/x/glw but it's too early for use. Whether I reuse this namespace is up for debate.
