There are many GUI libraries: TK, GTK, QT, Motif, Xlib, Athena and more.
Motif, xlib, and Athena are considered difficult so you may prefer not to
use them.

If you want to use javascript there are several solutions:
1. through a browser - you'll have to get your program to interface with the
browser through html, basicly to write a webserver. Not recomended.
2. Independent JavaScript viewer - take a look at NJS.

Basicly - use of javascript as a C++ frontend is interesting - but untested
and may be problematic in many ways. Not recomended - unless you have a good
reason to do that.
