I'm looking for suggestions on technologies to design a windows UI that's powered by HTML. I've run across HTMLayout which seems pretty good if not perhaps a bit limited. Are there any other technologies that would provide a good platform for creating an application UI based on HTML?

You can include or embed C code in an HTML document, but it will not do anything; it will taken just as text data. There is no support in browsers for using C as client-side scripting language.
With JxBrowser your Java desktop application GUI can be built with HTML/CSS/JavaScript. It means that you can actually use any modern HTML5 UI toolkit to build modern, user-friendly interface of your Java desktop application. You do not need to hire Swing/AWT/JavaFX developers.
Electron can be used to build Desktop Apps with HTML, CSS and Javascript. Also these apps work for multiple platforms like Windows, Mac, Linux and so on. Electron Combines Chromium and NodeJS into a single Runtime. This enables Us to run the HTML, CSS and Javascript Code as a desktop application.
You could use chromiumembedded. You get the power of Google's Chrome in your application.
Evernote used CEF (Chromium Embedded Framework) when they moved from C# back to C++.
Unlike HTMLayout, CEF has a permissive license, which allows usage in commercial applications without paying royalties. The drawback would be the huge binary size.
