Hi all If I can add my two words. I'm using Qt since 2012, V-Play about a year now. From my point of view biggest advantage is that Qt runs on about everything. Most of my projects include desktop, mobile, and server applications, where server runs on x86 processors as well as on ARM and it runs well, one of my project is CuteComfort all written in Qt (mobile app for Android, iOS, both tablet and phone), desktop app for Windows,Mac and Linux, server app running on Cubieboard microcomputer with ARM processor and the system is managing 4 story hotel (heating, lightning, sensors) about 5 years now. This advantage means that I just copy part of my code from server, to mobile (not graphics of course), to desktop - all the same code. V-Play is really nice, about a year ago I started to use it, so now I'm writing desktop and mobile app with V-Play. Many useful features like plugins (PushNotification, Facebook, etc.) - and again common code. So lets say you need to create system that require server,desktop and mobile apps, if you go native, this will require 4 different programming languages - 4 times the costs. If you go with some JS framework, you wont be able to make server and desktop app, whereas with Qt ... ;) About the costs, I'm not sure how it works now, I purchased license a few years ago and it costs me about 99 USD per month (I'm micro-entity) for Qt and I have yearly subscription for V-Play. I don't want to brag, but some of my projects are described here http://fmcode.pl/portfolio although only in Polish language, maybe google will translate, anyway pictures included.
