That's why I've proposed Vaudeville, a companion to the GTK Broadway. I already have something that works with a Qt4 Paint device... You run the app, then point your browser and you see the app. Right now I just use a timer to take the local widget and repaint it to the HTML5 canvas... It is almost pixel perfect. Only the font anti-aliasing is slightly different on the canvas.

After all, Qt was initially invented as a *desktop* framework. And I'm still glad that it is one of the most pleasant cross-platform ones to use! Anyway, I guess today, if you were serious about "web apps" (yes, I know, quite a stretch from "web services", you'd go the HTML 5 way... Qt/C++ on a server? Web Services? XML? Agree, that could get some love (I'm not an actual user in those area though - the Qt streaming XML parser is good enough for me). > ... Glad the mobile distraction is over with. Let's get back to taking on > .Net and Java.. Talking about which: if you were one of the unlucky ones to have bet on the MS Silverlight horse - well, bad luck: it's dead! Microsoft decided that HTML 5 is the way to go... Java on the webbrowser? Long time dead! JSP? Well, I'm still using it for that ;) Java on the desktop? Dead... (at least on the Mac you sure will win the price of the "Most Loved App"). Yes, I agree, both Java and the .Net framework still have a long life elsewhere, but my bottom message is this: you *never* know on which technology to bet, which one will be a dead horse tomorrow... but now and here, with Qt, you can play an active role and keep it alive! By providing bug reports, fixes, even new features, docu, constructive discussions... (ever seen that with any of the above-mentioned products?).
