U++, formally known as Ultimate++ - is a C++ RAD framework that aims to reduce the code complexity of typical desktop applications by including all necessary toolkits into a single C++ framework. Programs created with U++ work on multiple Operating Systems and Hardware Architectures with performance without needing to write platform-specific code.
