Have a look at Fyne as well [0], which is a Go-only native UI toolkit.

We recently did evaluation of different ways of building a cross-plarform desktop app as a Go team. We have built a PoC with Wails and Fyne, and we love Fyne. After a week from making a decision to go with Fyne, we are now 90% done and already running first alpha tests with users (who also love the simplicity of it). Devs like the ease of development and a ton of dependencies we don’t need to worry about, since Fyne is a lot leaner than Wails.

Just my 2 cents ;)

I did a project a few years ago with Fyne and it was excellent.
