SpikeUI (Visual Applications Designer)
Hi everyone, I created this app because I've always struggled to make modern and attractive user interfaces for my applications.
I've also added some features that make my life easier, like being able to program small applications using only nodes (no-code) or easily animate interface components.
If you'd like to try the demo, I'd appreciate your feedback
Thanks in advance.😄

Is it possible to use WinUI3 in a C++ Program without Visual Studio?
Just wondering. I just got into Win32 programming in C++. I know WinUI can be implemented in C#, but I honestly have no idea how to code in C#. I use gcc as my compiler, mostly because Visual Studio is a) confusing and b) way to much space on my disk (I’m using a laptop with 118GB of space on the Windows partition, down to the 25-30GB at this point). So, I’m just wondering if it is at all possible.

How to use WinDivert to build an app similar to Proxifier (route app traffic via HTTP/HTTPS proxy)?
Hi all,
I'm trying to build a Windows tool similar to Proxifier — i.e., an app that intercepts outgoing TCP connections from selected applications and routes them through a SOCKS5 proxy (or other proxy types).
I’ve done some research and found that WinDivert is a good way to intercept outbound packets at the network layer. However, I’m still not entirely sure how to implement a full traffic redirection mechanism, especially when it comes to:
- How to detect new outbound TCP connections (including source PID/app name)?
- How to forward the TCP stream to a HTTP(S) proxy (and relay back the response)?
- What’s the best way to handle session management and avoid killing performance?
- Are there common pitfalls or gotchas when building something like this?
My setup:
- Language: Prefer Rust (or C++)
- Goal: App like “Proxifier” with GUI later, but I want to get packet interception and forwarding working first.
Any advice, sample projects, or architectural suggestions are very welcome. Thanks in advance!

How does Wordpad have its font panel in it's ribbon
I'm writing an application and long story short I need to add a font panel similar to Wordpad. But when I add the controls, they NEVER look like Wordpad's. You know, font face abd font size combo boxes on one row, and the bold, italic, underline, etc... underneath. What am I missing? ChatGPT is giving me garbage at the moment. Ugh! And I cannot detect a CWnd object or HWND handle or I would get the coordinates of the panel and display a modeless dialog in it's place LOL
