We need your thoughts on Kirigami

@Nathan, I’m the same. I’ve already created a few Qt6 apps in Python 3.12, and I’m primarily a DotNet developer - C# and PowerShell - so I really don’t want to learn C(++) for anything if I can use Python instead. The fact that C doesn’t have a package management solution like pip (and CMake is probably the most convoluted mess I’ve ever investigated) makes it quite a high barrier to entry.

Even if Rust wouldn’t permit dynamically linked binaries (which is problematic for security and efficiency) it at least provides rudimentary dependency management, so it’d be better for those like me.


@Atem18, I don’t want that. I find MauiKit intensely ugly, not least because it doesn’t adhere to any user-configurable centralized theme. In fact, it’s inconsistent regardless.

Regardless, to my knowledge, their codebases are utterly divergent, so the sole conjoinment possible is a combination of the development teams and abandonment of one project in favour of the other.


@redstrate, I’d be willing to test on Windows and write enough documentation to fill your ears, but I’m just not a C++ or QML developer, so I’d be incapable of it.

I’m stating this because I expect that there are many people who are the same - would like to contribute, but merely lack the skills necessary.
