Build GUIs in HTML/CSS/JS instead of native elements

#21

Building out a reasonable GUI framework from scratch is also a huge project.

I wonder if there is middleware that could help make the ROBLOX GUI system nice to use/modern in the near term. I want to spend more time thinking about what should my GUIs be and less about how do I implement this.

From the developer’s perspective the current pain level in terms of both managing fiddly bits (rescaling (especially text), images, fonts, etc) and in limited range of expression is high.

Would be neat to see how Rust did it in Unity since it still maintains being cross platform.

I’ve always had a fascination with LUA and have made recent ventures into dabbling with more widely used languages (in terms of the web).

With a broader understanding of these concepts, I think this would be something that should have been implemented a long time ago.

not sure why you are necroposting a nearly 10 year old thread but you do you
