Gosh I feel like making the UI is always time consuming, but that might just be because I find it repetitive and boring, and thus perceive the work as taking longer.

I could die a happy man never imperatively constructing nested QBoxLayouts again.

Is that because it's actually difficult or because iterations take a long time from obnoxious compilation times?
Eh Qt isn’t really difficult, just not my idea of fun. I use the python bindings so compilation time isn’t a thing.
Eh gosh if you're using PyQt already, why would a different markup language to create the GUI help? Are you even using QML? That is the context of this thread.
I was only responding to the general statement that making the UI is not the time consuming part of app development.
