Hello.

This is my first post here. I tried UPP already in 2018 (well Hello World with some Menus and Message Boxes - nothing fancy). Now that I left behind the Qt Framework, I am looking for an Alternative. UPP has found its way on to my List of Candidates. As a lot of Information are really outdated (or atleast partially not updated for years), I want to ask some Questions first:

1. What is the Status of the Accessibility Support on Windows and Linux? Mainly Screen Readers -> Tabbing through Widgets etc.
2. Do you Support modern Backends such as Directx 12, Wayland, Vulkan, OpenGL etc.?
3. Can your Code be mixed with Libraries like Botan or is it too much "UPP-specific"?
4. Can I use self-compiled Version of ICU, OpenSSL/Botan, SQLite etc.?
5. If someone knows this: I saw that you switched to a specific Clang Variant. Can I use the MinGW-w64 Compiler on MSYS2 as well?
6. I remember that in 2018, when I tried to compile against MinGW, somehow always VC++ Flags got added and compilation always failed. It was the main reason I stopped playing around with UPP. Has this been fixed? I am talking about self created Configuration Files.

Thank you in advance!
Oliver
