IntelliJ is written in swing. It’s about the most complex piece of desktop software you’re ever going to use.

It’s objectively orders of magnitude more complex than a messaging app. Heck, it used to have messaging built in at one point I remember!

Also, I’ve done a bit of Qt and while I don’t have an example (I’m sure someone else could supply one- finance back/front office?) it’s predominantly used with C++ which scales to millions of likes of code.
