## Description

gxui is an experimental Go GUI framework and cross-platform UI library used to create graphical user interfaces that run on multiple operating systems using a single codebase.

The framework utilizes a WebGL web UI renderer that compiles Go application code into JavaScript to display interfaces within a web browser. It employs a cross-platform abstract interface to map UI primitives to different operating system rendering backends.

The project covers the development of single-codebase application logic and the rendering of interfaces through hardware-accelerated graphics APIs.
