With the recent popularity of Electron, I wonder why less attention has been given to Qt Quick. The JSON-like syntax of QML as well as JavaScript should be very familiar to web developers and you get software that looks much more "native" than what is achievable in the DOM (well, without reasonable effort).
- mlvljr 10y agoHandling ~rich text may be a pain in QML, though -- unless WebEngine (Chromium) is used, but then it becomes a glorified web app, again :). It all depends on what the app should do, of course (should it allow to remember multiple contexts, cache data, store it in a format, allowing quick search, etc.).
- PeCaN 10y agoRight?! Qt Quick is faster for prototyping, at least as flexible, _much_ faster to run, still very cross-platform.... (I like Qt)
- Chyzwar 10y agoI can write my react component and use it in mobile native version, desktop electron, mobile web, web desktop. Can you do the same with Qt? I don't get why people have so strong emotion for Electron.
