QML is such an awesome UI language, the only thing (that I know of) that comes close is Jetpack Compose.

The flavour of JavaScript QML uses is very different from regular JavaScript, it's literally a glue language and any significant non-UI logic should be done in C++.

And Qt C++ is very different to most other C++ framework (or how people usually write pure C++), it feels much more Java-inspired.

Anyway, it really is a great UI toolkit if you want something powerful, cross-platform and efficient.

I suppose Qt's cross-platform aspect is a big checkmark in the plus column. My own opinion of Qt is probably colored by the fact that I was forced into it against my will and that the Finns who initially wrote the app were unhelpful and downright hostile to my attempts to customize it in ways that their customization framework did not support.
