Hey,

I'm doing a project in C++ for university, experimenting with using reinforcement learning with a simple game. It's currently got a basic CLI interface, but I want to do some kind of GUI for convenience and presentability. However, it's not 100% necessary, and I'm already pretty short on time. Normally, I would learn something like wxWidgets and write it all myself, but I need something I can throw together while concentrating most of my time on the parts that will get me most of the marks.

I suppose the question is, is there any kind of RAD tool or simple API that you would recommend in my situation? I have some small previous experience in doing GUIs with Java Swing. It should preferably be cross-platform (Windows-Linux), but that's not necessary if there's something much better for Linux or Windows only. I can see a couple from a quick Google search, but would appreciate advice on which is best from anyone with experience.

Thanks,

-Joe

Well, you can get gtk, qt, or wxWidgets for anything.
