QWidget or Pure QML in 2020 with Qt6 for new project
-
Hi Friends,
I have started a new project, I started it with Qt6 from the begining to avoid migration in near future. It looks like QML is the new preffered way to develop Qt Apps on all platforms, so I am not using QWidgets, 100% of my App is QML now and Qt6, but QML lacks lots of components that QWidgets have provided for years now. I Miss native Dialogs, native Menus, Docking Windows, TreeView, etc...
It looks like all the efforts from Qt developers will be invested in QML and not in QWidgets in the forseeable future, So I am ready to develop the missing components from scratch in QML but it is a lot of work. Do you think that adding QWidgets to my App will be a big mistake now in 2020?
Frank.

No. Widgets are still fully supported. They don't get many new features, that's true, but they are regularly fixed, maintained and occasionally get new features, too.
