Qt has become too complicated to get any valuable use out of it. It uses outdated Javascript for everything and there's no error checking before a program runs, and then it crashes cryptically if you put a bracket in the wrong place.

start at $80 license cost per device (for a 100 devices batch) half of the final product price only for the GUI??? totally overpriced, not suitable for indie/makers commercial produtcs, only for big companies, fun or OSS projects
