Clay is a high-performance UI layout library written in C. It allows developers to build interfaces out of flexible building blocks that adjust to their content and move together. Unlike traditional CSS and browser-based UI frameworks, Clay computes but does not render layouts, making it versatile for various applications. It adopts an 'immediate mode' approach to UI updates, rebuilding the entire interface in response to state changes for simplicity and reliability. Clay is lightweight, highly portable, and has no dependencies, making it suitable for inclusion in diverse projects.
