Qt for MCUs is definitely interesting, but I wonder if they are able to go quite as low resource-wise as these other lite-graphics libraries (like Littlevgl mentioned in another comment).

TFA boasts RAM usage of 9kb. That's something you can run on almost a literal potato, and I'd be frankly astonished if Qt devs have been able to go as low.

On the other hand, you can build a somewhat nice system with graphics already with a Cortex-M4 and 512 kb of RAM. That sounds something that Qt just might be able to reach, which would be quite awesome.
