Hi, I tried humble ui some time ago and seems wonderful. I have been looking for "electron killer" alternatives for the Desktop and this is imo the best one. The problem is that I dont know much about Clojure, but Java and Scala. I think I still would prefer learning Clojure than Dart tbh as I'll be doing Desktop development on my spare time. Have you thought on interoperability with other JVM languages? I think the easiest one is call java lib from clojure. Does this have any perf drawback compared plain JavaFX app? Could it be the other way round, somehow make components in clojure and use them from java? For now I think my only option is to stick with JavaFX although I used it some years ago and it was not a pleasant experience. Nevertheless, I would like to help with the project if i can. I have been tempted to start making my own gui framework many times but I always conclude It is an overwhelming task for me. I only have some basic OpenGL experience and usually work on the usual fullstack webdev.
