I'm sure licensing is a big one. It looks like SwiftUI is MIT license and Qt is dual licensed.

- JimDabell 6y agoI think you are mixing up Swift and SwiftUI. Swift is a programming language created by Apple, it's been cross-platform for a while but is now going to be officially supported on Windows. Swift is Apache licensed. SwiftUI is a UI framework created by Apple for the Swift language, it's only available on Apple platforms, and it's proprietary.
- pfranz 6y agoThanks for the correction! I knew of the distinction, but in my haste I was looking at a different repo (and I blanked that the source hasn't been released and licensed). Swift looks to be Apache licensed. I'm fairly confident SwiftUI wouldn't have a commercial license, which is a major topic with using Qt.
