[julia-users] Re: building GUI on top of julia code

[Roger Herikstad]

I've used Winston and Tk for this kind of stuff. I have code for panning 
through an iterable using simple controls. The code is messy, but if it is 
of interest, you can find it here

I would have said IJulia with Interact.jl is your best bet to get this gone 
quickly. But I see that doesn't work for you. That is unfortunate, because 
doing it that way is going to be the easiest by far. If you can replicate 
the issues, an IJulia bug report would be appreciated, I imagine. 

Julia does have bindings to GTK and TK. Depending on your familiarity with 
these frameworks, they may work for you.

 So I have wrote the code for a numerical simulation in Julia, and I have a

 I would like to build a simple GUI with a few sliders for my parameters 
 and an array of plots that will change interactively as I change the 
 sliders.
 What are my options for quickly building such a thing? I prefer avoiding 
 the IJulia notebook because the kernel crashes quite often for some reason 
 when plotting stuff (this doesnt happen in the REPL).

 Thanks,

The problem is that the errors seem to happen at random times, and without 
any error message the kernel just dies. I am overly familiar with any of 
the 2 frameworks you mention, i.e. i know of their existence, but thats 
about it.

There's also GtkInteract.jl: https://github.com/jverzani/GtkInteract.jl
