Could you elaborate here please? I'm trying to learn qt at the moment.
- toyg 8y agoI believe he means that he switched to GTK because Qt is moving away from traditional desktop widgets (in favour of QML / QtQuick) and he didn’t want to go that way.
- MarvelousWololo 8y agoHm that's a bummer. It sounds like it's taking the Electron path then? Because that's exactly what I was trying to avoid.
- marcoms 8y agoThe code is also compiled to native code, but it's written declaratively. It's not for everyone, but it's not the same as Electron. Even still you have the option to use the traditional imperative API.
- fernly 8y agoI'm sure one cause is that QtWebEngine is a steaming garbage fire, with a far more limited API than the old WebKit based system, and many more bugs (not that the Qt4 WebKit support was a shining example) -- especially if you attempt to "deploy" (package) an app using it on MacOS.
