Isn't Spotify Desktop an Electron app?
- ohazi 5y agoHm, I may have been wrong. [1] suggest that it was a Qt app on Linux at one point, but this source is old, and more recent ones suggest that they now use Electron. I don't actually use Spotify, so I'm not sure - perhaps not the best example. The point I wanted to make was that you can use Qt to make "sexy" modern feeling apps, if that's a priority for you, it just takes work. Personally, I think something like VLC is a better example of a high quality app, even if the UI isn't flashy, but I guess people today want shiny stuff more than good reliable stuff.
