What is GuiLite?

• GuiLite has 5000 lines of C++ code, providing UI framework for all platforms, could run on iOS, Android, GNU/Linux, Windows, macOS and all ARM Linux IOT platforms.
• GuiLite is OS independent, even could run on any kind of MCU without OS.
• GuiLite is a embedded UI framework. It can work with Qt/MFC/UWP/XCode, which means you can get not only GuiLite features but also iOS/Android/macOS/Qt/MFC/UWP features as well.
• GuiLite can work with other languages(e.g. Swift, Java, C#).

⚠️We never encourage any people use GuiLite, but hope people understand UI itself. We hope GuiLite is small enough to help you understand how UI framework work, and build unique UI for yourself. We believe you're the only person understand your UI, not any UI libraries.

New feature: Demo on MCU -- HelloWave + HelloParticle

        

• MCU Hardware: STM32F103ZET6(512K ROM, 64K RAM) + 240*320 16bits color TFT LCD
• MCU Software: None OS + GuiLite
• Hello Wave has only 100+ lines code! Check the code. Showing you how to use wave widget.
• Hello Particle has only 100- lines code! Check the code. Showing you how to develop particle system.
• How to porting on any MCU in 5 minutes?
• Still support: Windows & Linux

Demo

GuiLite just a framework, it could not create UI by itself. In order to show how to build UI App with it, We provide some samples for your reference.
