All the good GUIs have a license fee.

What is this thing you call “good gui”?

It's what you put on bad software to make it palatable.

Like a sugar coating. It's why no one codes in Java anymore without 80 terabytes of ram for their IDE.

I wonder what's this "good software" (you meant language?) that doesn't require an IDE to code efficiently.

[–] Tamo@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

Good luck ever doing anything embedded if you always need a clunky IDE. Best thing I ever did was get comfortable in a solely vim/cmake/gcc environment. Even if the majority of work doesn't require it, it'll teach you a lot.

So that's my point. Don't write or use bad software. Then the GUI (bad or good) isn't necessary.
