alt Hacker NewsHi there! I'm curious about the use cases people you know used Qt to develop for mobile. Do you mind expanding on this?
I'd love if you could also contact me (my socials are in my profile) as I'm developing a set of components to help exactly in that situation.

They were developing non-trivial mobile apps. The kind where you use your fingers on a touch screen, but that are more complex than just showing a text and an image. Say Google Maps, or WhatsApp.
The problem was not the lack of components: the problem was that it was C++. C++ is more complex to write correctly than Swift or Kotlin and harder to debug. Which made those teams measurably a lot slower. It's just the wrong technology for the use-case, IMO.
