therecipe/qt provides Go language bindings for the Qt widget toolkit, letting developers write fully featured Qt applications entirely in Go (and optionally other languages). It also simplifies cross-compiling and deploying Qt apps to desktop, mobile, embedded, and WebAssembly targets.

Use cases

  • build a cross-platform desktop GUI app in Go
  • write Qt applications without C++
  • deploy a Go GUI app to Android or iOS
  • compile a Go GUI app to WebAssembly for the browser
  • create widgets-based apps for Raspberry Pi or embedded Linux
  • build a native-looking UI for Windows, macOS, and Linux from one codebase

When to choose

  • you want a full-featured, mature widget toolkit accessible from Go
  • you need to target many platforms including mobile and embedded from a single Go codebase
  • you prefer native desktop UIs over web-based Electron-style apps

When to avoid

  • you want a lightweight, actively evolving Go GUI with minimal setup
  • you need fast-moving Qt 6 features or frequent updates
  • your team cannot handle a heavyweight build toolchain (Qt SDK, qtsetup)
