>If you like QT, you'll love Lianja: QT is the second layer in Lianja (the Lianja framework which includes data access being the core). That's how native mobile will happen in Lianja, in fact.

Yes I like QT a lot. There is a free ERP system called xTuple (the free version is call Postbooks) that is written in QT. The xTuple programmers haven't been keeping pace with QT - it looks like they are about 2 years behind QT - using 4.x versions. But I was able to compile the latest postbooks source to QT 5.1 (the latest). I had to comment out a few sections that will need rewriting (due to dropped QT functions) and changed a lot of code functions that were deprecated. It took three days work but it's working. I bring it up because I am very interested the QT QML. QML is like javascript and CSS3 all wrapped together and can be used to develop QT programs without writing a single line of C++.

I believe QML just might be a simple way for me to get the cake and eat it too.
1. It's free
2. It's fast
3. It's has a very large community
4. It is easy to use
5. It runs on everything (including mobile)

I haven't used C++ for over 20 years but I guess it's like riding a bike - you don't forget! But if I had do everything in C++ I wouldn't look at it. But that's not the case here. I can add QML to the xTuple source (I can even add python) to develop the code my customers need. This sounds great - I get all the benefits without C++.

I still haven't rule out Lianja. BTW the videos not the web site don't really help much (although I like the gal's voice). Where are your tutorials, book, etc...?
