Cross compiling is doable and easier with the newer versions of Debian. One Qt issue I had is that a bunch of stuff is dependent upon OpenGL, which wasn't well supported with the Pi stuff when I was poking around at it. Qt is also just a beast to cross-compile. Rust is much, much nicer to cross compile but lacks a nice GUI. I've been poking at Cursive.rs for TUI stuff in an attempt to hack up my own scan tool so we'll see where that goes.
