Freaking about time they did something like that. Everyone looking for GUI alternative frameworks to run away from eletron and people find qt only to realize that it's impossible to use because you'd have to use that weird cpp language or use python for the only reasonable alternative they support.

Maybe they were scared of the work Slint is doing.

What work?

Being rust native with a ui language like qml and showing all their things working with 3 or 4 languages every release.

Well yeah, but I would want to use Qt/QML to have native integration with something like KDE Plasma.

Unfortunately Slint just recently announced that they will be slowly deprecating the native styles except Fluent, which is Windows's useless and unused style: https://slint.dev/blog/default-native-style-change

So it is quite good to have this Qt Bridge for Rust.
