gotk3 provides Go bindings for GTK 3 and related libraries such as GDK, GLib, and Cairo. It enables building native desktop GUI applications in Go with memory management that integrates with Go's garbage collector.

Use cases

  • build a desktop GUI application in Go
  • create native Linux windows and widgets with GTK3 from Go
  • write a cross-platform graphical tool in Go
  • use GLib and GObject signals from Go
  • build a GTK-based settings or utility app in Go

When to choose

  • you want to write a native GTK3 desktop app in Go
  • you target Linux desktops and want idiomatic Go bindings
  • you need tight integration with GLib/Cairo from Go

When to avoid

  • you need GTK4 features
  • you want a pure-Go GUI toolkit without C library dependencies
  • you target mobile or web platforms
