Have you ever written anything in Qt?
- yiyus 7y agoI've recently been using it and I am very disappointed. Some tasks that should be totally trivial are incredibly hard to get right and require platform specific solutions. Nothing unsolvable, but I was expecting a much more straightforward experience from a product that has been promoted as the cross platform toolkit since the 90s.
- danieldk 7y agoI co-developed a Qt C++ app of ~40,000 lines. I think the amount of platform-specific code was at most a couple of pages (handling macOS' behavior to keep an app alive when all its windows are closed). It is not perfect, but it feels a lot more native on every platform than virtually any web or electron app I have seen (including predictable keyboard shortcuts).
- rocky1138 7y agoI don't have a large amount of experience but when I worked with Qt I was blown away with how friendly and cross-platform it all was. It's pretty close to write once, compile to anything.
- pistolpeteDK 7y agoI have not. I’ve looked at it quite a bit, and it looks interesting.
