Linux – How do I create my own menuconfig GUI?

I

have a script in my head and I first want to make a GUI for it. The GUI style should be “menuconfig” (e.g. from the Linux kernel, Buildroot, etc.). I know one way is to “copy-paste” e.g. makefile Buildroot, but I don’t think learning ground rules is probably the best practice/easiest way.

I searched the internet for some tutorials on writing that makefile and couldn’t find anything. Is this even a “simple job”, or is writing a GUI in Java Swing or QT the easier solution to develop?

Does anyone have any good links on this topic?

Thanks

What you’re looking for is dialog (menuconfig usage based on.) lxdialog for dialog).
