Pick the tool you want to use to make the GUI, and build it. There is no standard way, just think about what you want to see on screen and build that. Just use whatever native libraries there are for graphics for whatever your language of choice is.

you let someone who likes making GUIs do it

Java swing

Install Gimp and open it.

Not you know hoe NOT to make a GUI

electron.atom.io/

Qt

JavaFX is better

This sounds like a job for me. Now that I'm done with my web development boot camp, I can build you a gui in JavaScript and react

Java Swing can look native, which is a huge plus (in my opinion).

GUI for C ??

nobody cares about "native"
you're not entitled to an opinion

have fun trying to make swing look native

You need visualbasic and an IP of a killer.

Meant to reply to

html & javascript

Basically you use some tool to layout your ui and then generate all the boilerplate dogshit. Then you go and make sure you've got all your shit instantiated and then just hook up functions to buttons and data views to data.

It helps is you can avoid thinking about how the boilerplate works.

UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());


???

Make drawing system calls to the OS.

It's just a bit of a learning curve, otherwise it's alright. Or do you require everything to be modern and minimalistic?

...

GTK+

I understood that csi reference

Her GUI was incredible...

...

JavaFX Font rendering in gnu+linux is a joke, just use swing.

Use Powerpoint, it's what Microsoft did for Windows 10

there's really nothing to it. the easiest way: pick a GUI library for the language of your choice and start going through the examples. play with it until it works. you just have to learn how to properly integrate it into your program(model/view pattern,ect).

I started with gtk, myself.
