Widget and Qt

[pandotic]

Hello guys,

i just new for mobile development, and i currently read most discussion about native vs web apps vs hybrid mobile apps development trend now.
On Symbian i know there is Qt for developing native apps and for web there is WRT (widget).

my question here is :

1. when to choose development using Qt (native) or widget (web apps) when i want to create mobile application?

sorry if i post on wrong thread. hope all you guys in this forum can give some explanation for my question above.

Thanks before.

Best Regards

Web runtime widgets are meant for simple, website-like apps and data driven applications. That do not require huge amount of processor power from the device. Qt is a full featured, cross platform application framework, developed using one of the best development environments there is, Qt Creator.

If you want rapid app development, I suggest you go with Qt Quick, not WRT.

if you are new to Qt and new to web development, you should take Risalmin advice...

I am for example a web developer, and WRT seems natural to me... and works very good for me... in 1 year published 35 apps
