Qt is C++, while GTK is pure C. These are very different languages, and exposing a C interface for C++ code as rich and complicated as Qt is not easy.


Ad yet TFA is kinda an example of that, no?


Qt without slots and signals is a poorer experience. IDK if the Qt Designer can work without them.


GTK provides slots and signals, through an admittedly baroque C-level implementation. Pretty easy to use, but try not to open the hood.
