QT renderer

[wokalski]

I think QT renderer would be a good renderer to have in terms of the ratio of needed work to the result. There are OCaml bindings to QT in the cuite project. What we need is just a renderer similar to the macOS one and a couple of components (probably a <View /> would suffice at the beginning)

@lpalmes was working on something here too - he might have ideas. If I recall right from our conversations, he might be considered pivoting pure to be a brisk-reconciler + QT solution?

[wokalski]

yes, that's correct! I talked with @lpalmes about it too 👍 but I am not sure what the details are. Thanks @bryphe for mentioning him!

Hey @bryphe @wokalski, i've been over the top with work this week.

I've created a prototype of the qt renderer, i'll send a pr with the minimal implementation.
Right now i'm trying to figure out how to embed qt in an esy package like reason-glfw does. Right now i'm using a local qt lib installed via homebrew.

I will send a pr for this soon, even if it's half baked for anyone who wants to give a helping hand! Cheers!

Awesome!
