Yue

A library for creating native cross-platform GUI apps.

About this fork

This is the fork of yue/yue maintained for moonbit-libyue, the MoonBit bindings of libyue. On top of upstream it carries:

• Fixes for GTK/Win32 issues found while driving the bindings on real desktops (event windows, layout timing, scrolling coordinates, popovers, Wayland shortcuts, text rendering, task dialogs, WebView2 options, etc.).
• Distribution tooling changes: the Windows distribution bundles the WebView2 SDK headers and loader DLL, and two typos in the vendored base headers are fixed while packaging.
• A prebuilt workflow that publishes, for every v*-mbt* tag, the source distributions together with prebuilt static libraries (Linux x64, Windows x64 and macOS universal) so that users of the bindings skip the local compilation of libyue.

The fork tracks upstream's main and rebases on it; fixes are kept as small isolated commits to make forwarding them upstream easy.
