Could/should one use this to build a touch screen user interface for an RPi as part of a kiosk based application?

I really like Go, and suspect a Go app would beat the pants off anything powered by Electron (performance wise).

I’d love to see this, but note that you’ll need to use a pure-Go graphical toolkit (or implement all graphics yourself), and likely interface the touchscreen yourself, too. If you’re not comfortable with this, it might be better to use something else.

Maybe a Flutter port would make sense here?
