macOS HTML as GUI

[mogallin]

My question is: is it possible to use HTML to make GUIs for programs?

I was thinking that instead of having a HTML link linking to a location it could perform a input action like entering a value to the program.
Maybe like this
<a href="programname.input.'2'"> 2 </a>

It would spare me a few hours learning a GUI I anyway would only use for this kind of things.

I think widget development with Dashboard is what you want to look at. If you want to code the 'logic' in C or Objective-C then you'll need to write that part as a plugin.

Actually, you can with adobe AIR. it's cross platform too.

You could do this using WebKit's Objective-C/Javascript bridge.
