Ok for linux it's GTK and Qt. What's native for windows in 2026? It's a complete joke of system UI.

In 2026 it’s WinUI. Microsoft has been clearer about it: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/winui/winui3

But the premise is silly: if Linux has two native toolkits, how is this a sensible recommendation?? Hint: it isn’t, because GTK/Qt are not the native, but rather simply the most used.

Also, go to Mac, and SwiftUI still doesn’t support all that AppKit used to, leaving an incentive for developers to deviate from the platform’s recommendation.

And back to Windows, WinUI still doesn’t fully replace Win32 or Windows Forms, so same conclusion applies.
