Zig GUI libraries that work with zig 0.13.0/master

I’ve looked but I couldn’t find any zig gui libraries that work with zig 0.13/master.
Capy threw errors regarding common controls not initialized. zfltk was also not able to build with zig 0.13/master.
I am not experienced with ffi enough to create my own bindings to C/C++.

This list should still be relevant:

I’ll check out that list. Seems like if the Gobject one works I think that should serve my needs. I don’t mind GTK.

I develop GitHub - david-vanderson/dvui which is good if you don’t need native widgets. It is zig and calls SDL/Web/Raylib on the backend.

If you are okay using a native widget toolkit, that is going to be the most mature.
