Perl6 binding to andlabs/libui
andlabs/libui is currently alpha software. This binding works with the current release, 0.4.1. It does not have full functionality, and is subject to change as andlabs/libui changes underneath it. The raw bindings accessible in Libui::Raw should be feature-complete, but only some widgets have an object-oriented implementation.
This library provides an object-oriented interface to libui. Shared libraries ui.dll, libui.dylib, and libui.so are provided in resources.
Linux requires GTK3.
Debian: apt install libgtk-3-0
use Libui;
Libui::Init;
my Libui::App $app .= new("test");
#This allows the window to be closed
#when the titlebar's close button is clicked
$app.window.closing.tap({$app.exit});
$app.run();
