WhyGUI (IN DEVELOPMENT)

WhyGUI is a minimal, custom GUI framework inspired by JSX, XML, and templating engines — but with zero HTML or CSS.

Write simple .gui files using a declarative, tag-based syntax and render native desktop UIs using PySide6 (Qt). Perfect for designing rapid prototypes or dynamic UIs with full Python control.
