I wonder why people dont use pyqt? my startup's first product was a Square-pos like tool built in pyqt and cross compiled to exe, dmg and linux executable.
We made it run on Windows XP machine with 256 mb ram total. Oh and we embedded cherrypy into it.
For lots of products with performance as a criterion, pyqt toolchain is so much better than electron. And programming in qt isnt bad at all.
- Longhanks 10y agoDeploying PyQT (statically, most end users don't have it installed) is a major PITA.
- sandGorgon 10y agothat's actually not true. we statically compiled the binary to include all qt dependencies and it ran out of the box - remember we were installing on low end POS machines and pyqt worked beautifully. Qt does not need to be dynamically linked. In fact the commercial versions of qt have even better toolchains.
