Please name a UI platform where you don't use frameworks.

Android activities/fragments = a framework.

WinForms = a framework.

ncurses = a framework.

Unity / Unreal3 = a framework.



I'm not familiar with your other examples but I object to ncurses being called a framework. In my understanding of the word a framework defines to some extent how your code needs to be organized and architectured, I don't think ncurses fits this description. It's more like a terminal-based drawing library.


Thats what people typically market it as, but when you use it, it has mor in common with various GUI toolkits. Lots of windowing, and the like, but not much drawing.

Not sure if that makes it a framework, though.


In my experience, the bulk of Flash code does not use frameworks and many developers start from scratch every time.

Application development w/ Flex is a big exception to that.


HTML5 with CSS and JS ;)


Most people use a data binding binding framework these days.


The unix way: Textfiles as in and output.


Using the POSIX standardized utilities and scripting framework.
