Hi Nick, Thanks for your message. As far as I can tell you cannot use OpenGL without Cgo or a native binding - like you say it would require reimplementing OpenGL in Go. We could, however, provide alternative drivers. The Shiny project has pure Go drivers for Windows and Linux which avoid OpenGL so that it can avoid Cgo. It would be possible to do the same with Fyne, if someone had the time, but of course you would lose potential benefits like hardware acceleration...
