Python and Qt have the potential to be an extremely compelling solution for cross-platform rapid application development.

Ongoing efforts to facilitate tighter WebKit integration are opening the door for developing rich Internet applications on Linux with the open-source GTK and Qt development toolkits.

This means, for example, a developer can use Rust as the back-end, and QML as the front end, and bring these together thanks to Qt Bridges, forming a minimal application.

For all other languages a Qt application developer needs, typically this is C++ or Python, they can use a base model which hasn’t been fine-tuned but is strong at those languages.
