It doesn&amp;#x27;t try to export much of Qt to Go, it basically expects you to write the UI logic in QML&amp;#x2F;QtQuick and then just use Go for the underlying app logic, using the QML plugin bridge to allow Go code to call QML functions and vice-versa.  In practice this works somewhat like writing a Go server that manages an HTML UI for doing browser-based UIs with a web-based RPC system, except I can write the UI code in QML which I find much preferable to HTML&amp;#x2F;JavaScript (variable binding Just Works, no need for frameworks like Angular, no need to mess with CSS, can efficiently pass around binary data in byte arrays easily, etc).&lt;p&gt;Currently my solution isn&amp;#x27;t even half-baked, I&amp;#x27;ve been implementing it to serve a specific app, and it currently has some dependencies that force it to be Windows only (these could be trivially removed, but doing so isn&amp;#x27;t important for my app).  I may share the code for this sometime in the future after it has matured a bit more, though there&amp;#x27;s really not that much to it.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Gotk3: GTK3 the Go way</title><url>https://blog.conformal.com/gotk3-gtk3-the-go-way/</url></story>

function ends without a return statement.  If this is a problem with my version of go, I will try and fetch the latest head from git.  I am interested!&lt;p&gt;sudo go get github.com&amp;#x2F;conformal&amp;#x2F;gotk3&amp;#x2F;gtk -- gives the same error.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Gotk3: GTK3 the Go way</title><url>https://blog.conformal.com/gotk3-gtk3-the-go-way/</url></story>
