I am looking into how feasible it is for me to attempt to write a l4re lighthouse plugin (QPA) for Qt5 on L4Re. I do not have much experience with this sort of low level development but I want to attempt this while learning, so I am trying to understand the GUI layers in L4Re. I will share the code with the community if my effort is successful.

Simplest way - use GENODE and develop GUI with QT The other ways - minimalistic Mag/dope, or Disko Gui, you can find some information about last in mail list

Dope seems to offer a subset of the functionality of the features of
Mag. What is the motivation to keeping both DoPE and Mag?
No, Mag offers only Goos (Frambuffer access) and Event
(Mouse/Keyboard/etc input events) interfaces, whereas DoPE also offers full windowing features. DOpE is a windowing system at the 1st place, and Mag is a minimalistic GUI which does not operate with the concept of window, only more basic concepts, like views (rectangular areas of the screen).
So, the motivation, I think, is that keep Mag as a most minimalistic
Gui, and DOpE as a full windowing system with realtime capabilities.
