> used Qt for many many years, but would like to get away from C++ for UI logic

i've been thinking about this lately.

objc/nextstep got swift.

c/gobject got vala.

c++/serenity is getting jakt.

these are all higher-level compiled languages whose design is directly informed by the corresponding framework apis.

especially in the olden days, when qt wasn't as much c++ as moc/c++, it would have definitely seemed like there was another language in there. why hasn't it been extracted?
