I posted before about the Glib stack with Cairo,   that propose a stable API, that may help to port applications to Sailfish. Namely, glib-2.0, gobject-2.0 and cairo-1.0, plus some other low-level libraries, like libsoup, libcurl or libjpeg-turbo. I know they are low level and Qt provides abstractions for them, but when porting, it's easier to keep these low level libraries, which have a stable API anyway. QML is used for UI on Sailfish in that case with these low level backends (already available in Mer).

What do you think ?

All the best,

Damien.
