Design change for ui module

Samir

Hi all,
I’d like to get your thoughts on a design change planned for the next version:ui module will be separated from the wluart.exe interpreter. This change will be seamless for most users and brings some great benefits:

Better Interoperability: The ui module will work independently, making LuaRT more flexible for various projects.
Console Program Support: Console apps will be able to use ui features
Lua GUI Module Integration: You’ll be able to use third-party Lua GUI modules like wxLua, Lua-GTK, or others for custom ui.

⚠️ Note for Compiling: When using rtc to compile programs to executables with the uimodule, you’ll need to link it using the -lui flag.

What do you think about this change ?

So you mean that the ui module is no longer part of the core framework? As long as I can include it again when compiling, I think it's fine for me.

Yes that's it. It will be a standalone module like crypto, net,...

The only caveat is to use -lui when compiling a program that uses the ui module
