I’m a big fan of Qt, but the original was written in python (using the Qt 
python bindings) which is my least favourite choice in language, and on top 
of that the original QM had many problems for the user experience.

I also know that the “state of the art” in creating user interfaces has 
moved on and the technology used in the old app is end-of-lifed for some 
years now.

All in all, you’ll get a nicer app if you ignore the code of the old one.
