On: PHP Cross-Platform Desktop GUI Framework

[demarq]

HTML/CSS is a GUI framework and besides you said it yourself:

Python GUI framework with PHP "bindings"

I don't think you should be dismissive of what the OP has done. You clearly believe this should be done differently. If that's the case I encourage you to spend your time and effort to do so just as the OP did. And then be brave enough to post your work on HN just as the OP was.

I feel the title isnt accurate.

> HTML/CSS is a GUI framework

Sure,it's just not WPF,Flex,Swing,Gtk or whatever.That's what I expect when I hear GUI framework.

Just because I found the title of this news vague doesnt mean I'm dismissive of anything.

Finally I just pointed out that it's likely the webview used in that project wont run any modern javascript lib or framework.

node-webkit runs Webgl and all the latest web techs
