Your suggestions are not compatible with what I was thinking , my scenario was that "I need to write a small application very quickly" not "I am staring a bussiness and I want to spend a few years developing an application", What I mean is that with Qt you have more then a GUI, you don't have to Google what library I need to do some networking , or what is the win32 API to count how many screens this PC has (and same for the other platforms). I did not work on Desktop application in many years so I am not sure what exactly is happening in Qt world now and for a quick project I don't want to learn some niche libraries .

> Your suggestions are not compatible with what I was thinking , my scenario was that "I need to write a small application very quickly" not "I am staring a bussiness and I want to spend a few years developing an application" I disagree; it's very possible to write a small application very quickly in modern C++ without Qt. > with Qt you have more then a GUI, you don't have to Google what library I need to do some networking If you are new to Qt then you do need to google how to use Qt. On the flip side, if you're not new to whatever other library you want to use for networking then you don't need to google to use that. Indeed, I don't need to use Google to figure out how to use asio and beast to connect to a server and download data using http. > or what is the win32 API to count how many screens this PC has What small application needs to know how many screens this PC has? I definitely don't consider that a small application and I would need to go "Google" how to get that information out of Qt. I would just as quickly find that information from Xlib because fuck Windows. > for a quick project I don't want to learn some niche libraries For a quick project I don't want to use Qt. Your argument is merely an opinion.
