This one is for "JAVAsucks" - https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/layout/visual.html This one is for wxWidgets - https://docs.wxwidgets.org/3.0/overview_sizer.html This one is for Qt - https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/layout.html This one is for GTK - https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/LayoutContainers.html Are you still going to argue "it does not exist"? Every cross-platform has a layout system otherwise it will a burden to write cross-platform apps.
