https://github.com/parro-it/libui-node/blob/master/docs/window.md#setchild:

setChild
Allow to specify the control to show in window content area. UiWindow instances could contains only one control. If you need more, you have to use Containers.

This

<App>
  <Window title="Test" size={{ w: 500, h: 500 }} margined={true}>
    <Text>Input:</Text>
    <Box>
      <Button>Hello</Button>
      <TextInput />
    </Box>
    <Button>Test</Button>
  </Window>
</App>

will display only:

<Button>Test</Button>

(the last child).

This should be documented and even better a warning/error be shown.
