Is Qt still a good platform for new desktop apps? I often have to choose a framework for new line of business apps on Windows. The choice usually is WPF but I'd prefer Qt. Last time I looked into it it looked a really well thought out framework. And I am one of the weird people who prefer C++ over C#.

My only concern is availability of 3rd part components like data grids, reporting and other widgets. There are many of them for WPF but I am not sure they exist for Qt. Can Qt interact with .NET components?

You can use Qt Charts or Qt 3d. Here is a link to the charts docs
