Along that tack, and as an informational tidbit, if you (any one, not just to someone) ever find yourself with a desperate need for a gui, but lack development tooling, there is always the messaging interface to GTK, GTK-Server, by Peter van Eerten, author of BaCon.

gtk-server is GTK by proxy. Send messages, get GUIs. Not fast, but readily available to hundreds of programming languages.

https://gtk-server.org/intro.html

And for anyone interested in how some geniuses create programming environments, BaCon is a BASIC to C converter. Ships as a shell script, that reads itself to self-host a C codegen pass, to produce a native compiled bacon compiler. Self hosted as a shell script. *That alone should warrant a trophy.* And Peter has coded the shell script so that it can actually run as the converter compiler for BASIC, or convert itself to C to native bacon.

http://basic-converter.org/ worthy of a read.

Have good, make well,
