Introduction

Qt is a free and open-source widget toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces as well as cross-platform applications that run on various software and hardware platforms with little or no change in the underlying codebase.

Go, also known as Golang, is a programming language designed at Google.

therecipe/qt allows you to write Qt applications entirely in Go, JavaScript/TypeScript, Dart/Flutter, Haxe and Swift

Beside the language bindings provided, therecipe/qt also greatly simplifies the deployment of Qt applications to various software and hardware platforms.

At the time of writing, almost all Qt functions and classes are accessible, and you should be able to find everything you need to build fully featured Qt applications.

Installation

The following instructions assume that you already installed Go and Git

(Experimental) cgo-less version (try this first, if you are new and want to test the binding)

Windows
go get -ldflags="-w" github.com/therecipe/examples/basic/widgets && for /f %v in ('go env GOPATH') do %v\bin\widgets.exe
macOS/Linux
go get -ldflags="-w" github.com/therecipe/examples/basic/widgets && $(go env GOPATH)/bin/widgets

Default version

Windows (more info)
set GO111MODULE=off
go get -v github.com/therecipe/qt/cmd/... && for /f %v in ('go env GOPATH') do %v\bin\qtsetup test && %v\bin\qtsetup -test=false
export GO111MODULE=off; xcode-select --install; go get -v github.com/therecipe/qt/cmd/... && $(go env GOPATH)/bin/qtsetup test && $(go env GOPATH)/bin/qtsetup -test=false
