Tangentially, I just listened to an old cppcast about https://www.copperspice.com/, a QT fork with ambitions of being more c++-ey.

New 3.1.6 release of wxWidgets, free and open source library for creating portable native GUI applications, adding transparent support for high DPI artwork and much more, is now available.
CopperSpice might be worth looking at too. Coming from Qt you're probably going to like it better than wxWidgets.
-
Qt Creator 6 released
So I strongly dislike Qt. It's got a predatory vision for open source enforcement where they mislead their customers with spoopy language and make it harder and harder to download. In addition, they continue to insist on an architecture that's not even actually C++ (it's got a different grammar) despite it being completely possible to architect a better version of their designs in standard C++.

making a qt fork
See copperspice project. Originally forked to work around short coming of Meta-Object Compilation.
