Qt (C++ + QML, python + QML or even C++ + QtWidgets) is well suited for desktop application development. You can easily stay with the open source licence of Qt. The Qt website is not really clear about this and they will push you to go for a commercial licence.
Electron (+ any web front-end UI framework, like React) will also do the job.
You can also check for Java Swing or Java Jetpack Compose.
Wonderful promise ! I'm really thinking that I need an app like that one but how to justify the price ? I'm ready to pay for that kind of service but it's seems too expensive to me. How an app like this can cost you 10$ per month and in comparison an app like Procreate (best drawing app on iPad) cost you only 10$ (not per month or year, just 10$).
> While my Qt apps are very much coded against Qt, it’s actually pretty easy for me to currently switch them to other UI frameworks as needed.
Are yours apps open-source or do you know some architectured in the same way ? Curious and interested to dive into a well designed Qt application with logic and UI separation.
Repaper Studio, a drawing application designed to be used with the Slate, a digital drawing tablet. I've been working in the company behind it and the app is Qt-based (QML/QtQuick).
I'm using and loving gitkraken ! A lot of git functionalities are accessible in one or two clicks. The UX is really well thought and I personally like the UI. I'm using it for 3/4 years and I'm sure everyone can improve and speed his git workflow by using gitkraken. Super efficient specially if you work with multiple repo / submodules.
Seriously, how can you work without visualizing a git tree like gitkraken does it for you ? I can't go back to a full git-cli workflow... I didn't find any equivalent or real challenger. The only drawback is that it's not open source and free to use with private repo.
Yep, Qt Quick 3D is available under Qt commercial and GPLv3 license [1]. "New" Qt modules, like for example Qt 3D, are used to be licensed under LGPL and not GPL for the open-source part [2].
But recently they started to change some modules licensing from LGPLv3/Commercial to GPLv3/Commercial [3].
Junior Qt/C++ developer here. In my opinion, the Qt community is poorly developed and not booming at all currently, which I greatly regret.
What are you thoughts about this Marketplace and it's future potential impact ? Is it gonna promote the open source and "plugin" community around Qt/QML ? It seems pretty "company" oriented.
