What Hacker News says
3 sources> That's a killer UI, and I'm happy to admit it's incredibly good for what I've seen/used of Qt apps over the years... but it's not the norm.
It's the norm for Qt apps since 2011 - 2012 when qml was introduced (of course, older apps use the older tech - and honestly, sometimes it makes more sense : at least all the colors, fonts, etc... will respect your desktop theme unlike "modern" toolkits). Here's how some QML code looks: https://github.com/jcelerier/TodoMVC-QML/blob/master/Main.qm... ; as you can see, it's far from bloated (mostly due to the language being based on reactive semantics).
For instance a consequent part of KDE has been rewritten in QML and more is underway with Kirigami : https://dot.kde.org/2017/01/12/kde-releases-kirigami-ui-20
In Show HN: Cross-platform desktop applications with PyQTHere's how to do a TodoMVC with Qt. It takes less than 150 CLOC tops. No need to override whatever paint method anywhere. https://github.com/jcelerier/TodoMVC-QML/blob/master/Main.qm...
