Node.js bindings for libui library.
libui is a lightweight, portable GUI library that uses the native GUI technologies of each platform it supports.
It is in early stage of development, but is evolving at great pace and is really awesome. It could become an awesome alternative to Electron to develop multiplatform GUI, expecially suited to develop small apps.
macOS
Linux
Windows
All prebuilds are build on CI and afterwards downloaded and published in the npm install phase. Prebuild t binaries are available for the following platforms:
If you are using one of these platform, you don't need to recompile libui-node source code from scratch.
The only additional dependecy you nedd is GTK+ 3 to run on Linux.
Otherwise, libui-node sources will be compiled during part of the install
phase. You need the following additionl dependency in order to compile:
If they are not provided by default in your distribution:
npm install -S libui-node
libui
prebuilt binaries are automatically downloaded after install.
If you get this error on Windows:
'__pfnDliNotifyHook2': redefinition; different type modifiers
you need to install latest npm version:
$ npm i -g npm
see this node-gyp issue for more details.

git clone https://github.com/parro-it/libui-node.git
