    Simple Qt-based programming calculator

    > I wonder if there's a way to shimmy in a "modern macOS Qt renderer" or something into an existing project like this without a rewrite?

    Apparently there is. I hacked something together in a new branch: https://github.com/fellerts/procal/tree/fredrik/theme. Feel free to check it out and let me know how it works for you.

  • qalculate-qt

    Qalculate! is my favourite GTK and Qt-based calculator that's great at accepting all sorts of inputs, even solving for X: https://github.com/Qalculate/qalculate-qt

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • flet

    Flet enables developers to easily build realtime web, mobile and desktop apps in Python. No frontend experience required.

    Flet (https://flet.dev) is a new GUI library for Python to write apps like that. It uses Flutter to render UI with a modern-looking Material design. Your app can be run as a desktop app and published as a web app (standalone with Pyodide or server-driven with built-in web server).

  • calc

    LOL, nice! I wrote something quite similar a few years ago: https://github.com/os12/calc

  • slint

    Slint is a declarative GUI toolkit to build native user interfaces for Rust, C++, or JavaScript apps.

  • libqalculate

    Qalculate! library and CLI

    Second that also as a cli `qalc`. Use it nearly every day, to convert units and quickly qalculate that would take way longer when opening a gui or pulling out my phone.

    e.g.

    > 100 GB/m to kB/s
