Overall Qt is quite nice and works portably across platforms. You're right about callback hell but there's a fox for it. Personally I prefer to create a bunch of overloaded utility functions for different widgets and data types and in each utility function i use QSignalBlocker to make sure I'm not accidentally invoking any callbacks. I condiser any "raw" Qt "setXYZ" call to be a bug.
