Those techs were designed specifically to help users whip out a quick GUI, but aren't very good at anything else.
Qt is a cross-platform GUI toolkit developed for C++.
To make a reasonable comparison, compare the Qt examples with MFC, which is still a thing that creates jobs and careers.
- jimnotgym 8y agoI don't take op comments as a criticism of Qt. I think he was just lamenting that there isn't as easy a way to build a GUI app as there was in 1999! I agree, and have to say that a Delphi-for-Python would be hugely successful in the SME getting-things-done space. I wish I was skilled enough to write such a thing.
