Thanks for the kind words.
Yes, the project is very early stage - I've been tinkering for 6 months in my spare time (and it's not like I had a whole lot of that to start with). Getting cross platform on 4 platforms has, as you might expect, taken a bit of effort.
I started down this path because the existing options didn't satisfy me. When my initial couple of weeks of tinkering proved that it was possible to get widgets without binary dependencies, that gave me the momentum to get to the point that I've publicly announced. There's plenty left to do, but I've got high hopes.
