I wonder why all the UI toolkits always come without some form of layout support.

What is Qt without a GridLayout?

[sebringj]

I see your point. Having the mobile layout Grid thing is quite handy. There is another toolkit for React I've been using for an admin backend that has proven useful, not quite as polished but has more of a complete toolkit for what I need. npm rebass, relfexbox, react-geomicons was on Hacker News as well -> http://jxnblk.com/rebass/

Because flexbox has been around long enough and allows you to hit 97.12% of the market with prefixes and 85.11% unprefixed.

What are you talking about?

- bootstrap contains a grid layout

- semantic-ui contains a grid layout

- bulma contains a grid layout

- purecss contains a grid layout

- tachyon contains a grid layout

- skeleton contains a grid layout

- milligram contains a grid layout

- spectre contains a grid layout

and the list goes on.

That's nice but their idea of grid is to hand you a bunch of fixed-sizes CSS you can slap on elements. That has very little to do with the actual layouting a UI toolkit like Qt provides for.

I don't know anything about Qt but if it's so good, why hasn't someone made something equivalent for web that just generates the underlying HTML/CSS?

I don't think you understand what is a grid layout as defined in QT,GTK+,WPF ... we're not talking about CSS grids with CSS box model.
