Gallium is a Go library for building desktop applications with HTML, JavaScript, and CSS UIs rendered in a Chromium-based webview. It provides APIs for managing windows, menus, dock icons, and desktop notifications.
Use cases
- build a desktop app in Go with an HTML UI
- create native menus and notifications for a Go app
- wrap a web page in a native macOS window
- make an Electron-like app using Go instead of Node.js
- show desktop notifications from a Go application
When to choose
- you want to write desktop app logic in Go with a web-based UI
- your target platform is macOS only
- you prefer a lightweight Go library over Electron
When to avoid
- you need Windows or Linux support
- you need a stable, production-ready API
- you want a mature framework with active maintenance
