About

|
|
-----
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
wxWidgets is a free and open source cross-platform C++ framework
|
||
|
|
for writing advanced GUI applications using native controls.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
wxWidgets allows you to write native-looking GUI applications for
|
||
|
|
all the major desktop platforms and also helps with abstracting
|
||
|
|
the differences in the non-GUI aspects between them. It is free
|
||
|
|
for the use in both open source and commercial applications, comes
|
||
|
|
with the full, easy to read and modify, source and extensive
|
||
|
|
documentation and a collection of more than a hundred examples.
