Yes, EuGTK is the most complete (up to date), nicest-looking, and easiest to use (IMHO). https://openeuphoria.org/wiki/view/eugtk.wc
It also has the most complete help available, in html, as well as popup help for both Euphoria and GTK keywords when you use the BEAR editor (shown in the screenshot on that page). EuGTK is also used in Pete's great Wee cross-platform code editor when the platform is Linux.
It's designed for Euphoria 4.1 beta 2, don't let that discourage you, 4.1b2 is stable and completely usable.
https://openeuphoria.org/pastey/319.wc#0 has an example of a simple list-view, so you can see what the code looks like.
EuGTK programs can usually run on Windows without much if any changes, as well.
It's best to just write code using a text editor such as Wee, but there is a "drag and drop" interface builder called Glade which works with EuGTK. https://glade.gnome.org/ Just as with other such designers VB, DELPHI, etc. you will need to write some "glue code" with a text editor to connect the controls to functions you write.
