You are correct, in my opinion the price for Qt is way too high if you
only need the mobile platforms. That's the reason we're thinking about
phasing out Qt in the next project. You'll likely reach the $100k
revenue with a 2-man project soon.
Don't forget there's also Google's Flutter in the game which is written
in dart and renders all by itself like Qt does.
React Native will give you all the joy of dependency management
(cocoapods, gradle) and 3rdparty libraries available for mobile which
will be hell to integrate with Qt (think of lottie animations and google
maps for example). Also they support the nice "hot reload" (flutter also
has this feature).

Hello Ekke, Jason, Jérôme, and all
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and tips.
Did you use the v-play components? how did you succeed to match the
native look and feel?
My choice is between Qt and React Native.
I would have gone with Qt but the price is the real barrier for me. As
I don't know the success of the app, it is hard to start (and convince
my partners) knowing the price to pay per year.
Ekke you mention in your blog about the startup plan but as far as I
know, this is discontinued, the startup plan now let you use the
"trial" version until you go to the store.
React Native is fully in javascript, but seems typescript can be used
(which is much better) (BTW would be great to use typescript in QML).
The benefit of RN is IMO to do json natively, but the negative aspect
is that it is not as cross plateform as Qt, so the desktop version is
likely to be (much) more challenging.
I am really puzzled, I think that Qt is better than RN, but the price ...
Am I missing something? is there someone else in the same situation?
ps: I continue to investigate (and to read the blog of Ekke), my
choice is not done yet.
Best regards,
Sylvain
