user interface - Best GUI language/tool to quickly create cross platform (Mac & Windows) Adobe Photoshop competitor? -


if wanted create competitor adobe photoshop, language or tool allow me build on mac , windows?

i assume have build separately mac , windows since java way build cross platform - , java not work (or wrong?)

adobe lightroom built using lua , c , 63% of code base lua. accounts fact majority of code base application gui code. low level image manipulation code written in c, portable @ level. alternative lua python. cross platform, qt used in graphically intense cross platform applications guitar pro 6, lightwave 10 , others. there rich bindings between python , qt.

lua or python can accelerate , streamline time consuming part of application letting put gui more but ...

... skeptical of kind of "competitor" photoshop ( or other mathematically complex piece of software ) because of shear scope of project. photoshop has been created team of dozens or more software developers on 10s of years. used first version before had number, barrier entry "competitor" photoshop high.

photoshop complex piece of software because of problem domain, image manipulation, on large scale images isn't easy problem solve, , there no "quickly" way build application of magnitude, less in cross platform manner.

anyone needs ask question, pretty dis-qualifies being capable of being able accomplish task of magnitude alone.

you effort better spent trying create of smaller scale original.
