Fresnel can run natively without the LCL. It currently supports as 
native backend on Linux only gtk3, so you have the same dependencies as 
a gtk3-LCL application. Of course creating a wayland or X11 backend 
would be possible.

On Linux there are a Skia, a gtk3 native renderer and a LCL renderer. 
The Skia renderer runs on Linux, macOS and Windows, and is the most 
complete of the Fresnel renderers.
