I like c++, but I find myself including qt for every project, the included functionality is just too good. Even then I often feel like jumping back to reg python.
Is there anyone here that actually enjoys working this close to the hardware when you just want to build a simple program?

C+Tcl+Tk or C+++WxWidgets is the patrician choice.
Robert Cook
>close to the hardware Oh yeah I use Rust
Christopher Sanders
if you can't even understand this why are you in Sup Forums?
Luis Reyes
>close to the hardware lololol
even when you're coding in fucking machine code, you're still a dozen of layers of abstraction from actual hardware behind pipelines, jump predictions, microcode translator/optimisation and code simply waiting for memory bus to deliver it's data which is majority of the time.
Big producers of CPUs and translators are even optimising against each other's quirks so now it's ctively counter-productive to "closer to hardware".

>look at how smart i am for taking things out of context in terms of regular programming languages c++ is pretty close to hardware you retard

Is Qt a good library for GUIs? Is it fast?
Christopher Rogers
This, im really courious Althought i heard it doesnt respect my freedomz
Owen Flores
Let tcl die please. Tk can stay.
Qt is Quick and also hardware accelerated. It is dual-licensed in LGPL3 and commercial. Perfectly reasonable for freedoms.

FORTH is the closest to hardware you can get.

Unironically this

OP, you are aware that python has QT libraries as well right?
My suggestion: if it does not require speed, and desu most things dont these days since the bottleneck is bandwidth, then just do it in python.
Daniel Jones
does rust have QT port or some other comfy GUI libraries?

never gonna make it

Qt isn't a library: It's a full fledged framework. Qt is very bloated for simple stuff. Also, it uses raw pointers everywhere and duplicate all containers. C++ is already hard enough.

>try to install Qt Creator on mac >tells me I need to install Xcode first What the fuck is this shit? I thought it was a standalone IDE.
Blake Torres
t. brainlet autismo
Adrian Martinez
afaik qt creator needs libs and/or tools that are installed with xcode. so, you must install gentoo
Austin Walker
>he still believes electrons are real cute kid
Andrew Morris
like 8kg close
Cooper Phillips
Is Qt creator really the best sepples IDE?
Jason Watson
But it's still 30k miles up the ladder of abstraction. Being "close to the hardware" is a dumb autistic meme. If you want to actually be close to some hardware, go write in VHDL.
Michael Nguyen
It isn't even necessarily far from the hardware, that's just one common implementation. You can very obviously write C on processors without internal abstractions. It's still relatively closer than other non-direct-memory implemented languages. Saying every chip anywhere is abstracted is just wrong.
Tyler Adams
Why does everyone dislike Xcode? It's good.
Jack Thomas
Ironically this
Jordan Brooks
LOL if it's the only ide you've ever worked with
Wyatt Clark
What do you recommend?
Nathan Moore
if it does the job and isn't too obviously slow or ineffective - who gives a shit?
