You realise it's possible to write a decent UI in Qt that isn't a dumpster fire from the codebase perspective right?
I know the fad these days is to turn everything into a web app but my experience working with Qt really just demonstrated to me that a lot of web UI development is reinventing wheels from desktop UI but poorly and with more bugs and frustration.
That's just my perspective though :-)
- PoignardAzur 6y agoMy personal experiences differs. I recently spent a year working on a Qt app for drawing circuit diagrams, aimed at nuclear engineers. I've lost count of the number of times I found myself wishing for some feature that React has implemented for years. The parts of the code that were easiest to maintain were the ones that reinvented reactive UI: every modification to the underlying data called some "updateGraphicsView" function that would then re-render the entire thing. Not great for performance, great for avoiding bugs. Seriously, for me Qt goes in the "never again" category.
