Is their no common toolkit like css for Cocoa GUI ?

No. This is largely because Mac applications are supposed to have a consistent user interface. You can read more about this in the Apple Human Interface Guidelines:


http://developer.apple.com/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/OSXHIGuidelines/

If you want controls with a custom look you have to modify or replace the existing controls.

Or hell just use css for building the apps interface? No a widget but
a real cocoa app.


You could make your application window contain one big WebKit view and make your application a hybrid web/Cocoa application. It would be more complex than a standard Cocoa app though.
