First select which graphics libraries you will use, you have Gnome and QT.

Find out how to configure LightDM or gdm, this depends on the distribution you are going to use as a base to show your desktop system, in fact if you can get it to show you the screenshot with the empty desktop you have an achievement.

Then what you have left is to create a desktop application as a service.

Check this:

/etc/lightdm.conf

/etc/gdm3

I honestly don't know much about this topic, but I think this is more or less where it's at.

I'm not sure what you're looking for, but I think this is where it's at.

Hi, I think you should be a bit more specific, do you want to program with a visual language or do you want to use a graphical environment or do you want to program a graphical environment?

If you want to program a graphical environment like gnome or kde , uff is a bit complicated , you would have to do it in c or c++

If you want to use a graphical environment , there are many , there are the traditional gnome and kde and many more

If you want to program with a visual language , I would advise you to use GAMBAS which is a visual development environment like visual basic . It is a language for my taste very good and easy to make things fast and visual

As far as I know, there are already interfaces built on the x Windows API on Unix Linux

They are open source, so you could start here.

You want to CREATE one? You'd have to look at all the source code for xwindows, along with some window manager like Gnome.

If you just want to INSTALL a graphical environment, then it's a bit easier.
