[Development] Deprecation of Qt Quick Controls 1

[NIkolai Marchenko]

And no, widgets is not an alterlative to proper qml controls on desktop
when you want custom interface.
I have an app that uses qml to draw a custom listview for users, it would
be extremely hard to replicate it with widgets and why should I do that
when I have qml?
