FLTK (pronounced "fulltick") is a cross-platform C++ GUI toolkit for UNIX^®/Linux^® (X11), Microsoft^® Windows^®, and MacOS^® X. FLTK provides modern GUI functionality without the bloat and supports 3D graphics via OpenGL^® and its built-in GLUT emulation.

FLTK is designed to be small and modular enough to be statically linked, but works fine as a shared library. FLTK also includes an excellent UI builder called FLUID that can be used to create applications in minutes.

FLTK is provided under the terms of the GNU Library Public License, Version 2 with exceptions that allow for static linking.

You may pick more than one answer. (please pick all that apply) Yes, I'm often looking for interesting FLTK apps. Yes, please keep, but I don't use them frequently. No, I don't really need these apps and links pages. No, I never use them, please remove. I use FLTK Apps but not Links. I use Links but not FLTK Apps. I used them when I was new to FLTK. I believe they are important for new users. I like them, but they should be better accessible. I abstain. [ Results ] (442 votes, 4 comments)
