Qt Group unveils expansion plans for technology-agnostic Qt ecosystem (www.qt.io)

As part of this expansion, Qt Group will introduce new bridging technology that integrates Qt with any programming language of choice, initially including Rust, Python, .NET, Swift, and Kotlin/Java.

I'd really like to use Qt for GUI and HMI development for certified medical devices using embedded hardware, but wasn't looking forward to all the conventional C++ that would have entailed. Looks using Rust with Qt may get better soon?

Second source reporting from Qt World Summit in Munich:

Part of the thinking here is that C++ is regarded as an unsafe language whereas the languages supported by Qt Bridges are safe languages, potentially escaping the notion that because Qt is C++, it is not as safe to use.

Rust bindings for Qt would be pretty awesome.
