How easy is it to style these components? I've worked at a lot of IoT companies that run full-blown android just to get access to the UI libraries on android. I've been looking for something high level that can be used to build a completely customized kiosk interface on low end hardware. You shouldn't need a 4core CPU with 2GB of RAM to get reasonably clean user interfaces working.

Qt/QML is commonly used for that. Some companies sell component libraries for it, but many projects just code up custom components in QML.

I'd think Qt on embedded linux could do much the same with a lot less, or littlevgl if you want to go even lower. The cost is in finding good people for a reasonable wage.

You can also use PySlide or PyQT5 to write all the base in Python with Qt components. Python+QT works really well if you build good unit tests. I used it recently to build an mpv front-end:

What are the specific pyqt unit tests? Curious since I use this stack at work.
