This is a list of notable library packages implementing a graphical user interface (GUI) platform-independent GUI library (PIGUI). These can be used to develop software that can be ported to multiple computing platforms with no change to its source code .
The Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC), a C++ wrapper around the Windows API. The Windows Template Library (WTL), a template-based extension to ATL and a replacement of MFC; The Object Windows Library (OWL), Borland's alternative to MFC. The Visual Component Library (VCL) is Embarcadero's toolkit used in C++Builder and Delphi. It wraps the ...
wxWidgets (formerly wxWindows) is a widget toolkit and tools library for creating graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for cross-platform applications. wxWidgets enables a program's GUI code to compile and run on several computer platforms with no significant code changes.
Qt (/ˈkjuːt/ or /ˈkjuː ˈtiː/; pronounced "cute" [7] [8] or as an initialism) is a cross-platform application development framework for creating graphical user interfaces as well as cross-platform applications that run on various software and hardware platforms such as Linux, Windows, macOS, Android or embedded systems with little or no change in the underlying codebase while still being ...
The Object Windows Library (OWL) is a C++ object-oriented application framework designed to simplify desktop application development for Windows and (some releases) OS/2. OWL was introduced by Borland in 1991 and eventually deprecated in 1997 in favor of their Visual Component Library (VCL).
Windows Forms, also known as Winforms, is a free, open-source graphical user interface (GUI) class library for building Windows desktop applications, included as a part of Microsoft.NET, .NET Framework or Mono, [2] providing a platform to write client applications for desktop, laptop, and tablet PCs.

JUCE is used in particular for its GUI and plug-ins libraries. It is dual licensed under the GPLv3 and a commercial license. [2] The aim of JUCE is to allow software to be written such that the same source code will compile and run identically on Windows, macOS and Linux platforms. It supports various development environments and compilers.
The original AWT was a simple Java wrapper library around native (operating system-supplied) widgets such as menus, windows, and buttons. Swing was the next generation GUI toolkit introduced by Sun in Java Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) 1.2. Swing was developed to provide a richer set of GUI software components than AWT. Swing GUI elements ...
