GUI is hard : GLFW is not waiting events to repaint but running continuously on Wayland

submitted by cm0002 to programming 1 points | 0 comments https://github.com/glfw/glfw/issues/1911 This has be true for a while and it doesn’t feel right. On X11 things are better and application do not run all the time as long as there is no event (mouse, key or compositor asking for repaint). Is there any alternative to make efficient GUI? I am building one because for the longest time Qt/GTK/WxWidget had so many issues and are not meant to directly draw with OpenGL when you need it.
