@ilja Qt framework mainly uses C++, and seems to have official bindings for python. These days there is also Qt QML for building the gui part, which also allows business logic in the form of javascript.

Some other languages also have partial binding support for it but it's dodgy and really not friendly for getting started with.

@fristi @ilja I have used Qt with python. Works well I would say. Though I just used QT Designer for the UI-Part.

@fristi the one upside is that if you stick to asynchronous gui programming and using Qt idioms and the huge kitchen sink Qt provides, Qt/C++ is almost like a different and slightly simpler language (don't have to worry too much about memory management, avoid template soups by just paying the runtime cost of inheritance-based polymorphism which isn't that big a deal anyways etc...)

@papush what I need is a decent tutorial to developing gui apps with qt and C++ that starts from zero rather than assuming I'm already a wizard with years of C++ experience akko_sad
