Quick reply...

Dependencies. If an app depends on *qt*, then the app is written in Qt, most likely. If an app depends on *gtk*, it's written in GTK. If an app depends on *hildon*, it's (most likely) written in GTK with Hildon flavor.

Just from appearance, it's difficult to distinguish Qt and GTK. Closed-source calendar-ui was written in GTK-Hildon (right?), yet its open-source replacement Qalendar is written in Qt (right?).

Best wishes.
