GUI for C++

Hi there has anyone experience with Graphic User Interfaces in C++. I'd like to write some basic programs to simplify my daily work. However, console applications are sometimes too cryptic. So I'd like to write some programs with a GUI. I am using Code Blocks on a Win10 PC. I'm curious how to start the GUI programming.

Also good libraries: OpenGL and SFML.

There are plenty of free portable GUI libraries, each with its own strengths and weaknesses: Qt GTKmm (based on GTK+) wxWidgets FLTK Ultimate++ JUCE ... Especially Qt has nice tutorials and tools which help you getting started. Enjoy! Note, however, that you should avoid platform specific functionality such as the Win32 API or MFC. That ties you unnecessarily on a specific platform with almost no benefits.

Do you have some experience with some of these libraries in different IDEs. Are they dependent?
