When QGIS Qt6 builds received stable Python bindings in early 2024, I began the process of updating my plugins. Since Statist was the first QGIS plugin I have developed, it was the natural choice to start with it.

Although the porting was completed almost a year ago, I haven’t announced the new version for both personal and global reasons.

The switch to Qt6 was straightforward and mostly involved fixing imports and enums handling. However, this was also a great opportunity for refactoring, code cleanup, and UI polishing, which I could not pass up. So, I switched from a custom worker thread implementation to QgsTask, aligned the user interface with the native QGIS Statistical Summary panel, and improved the appearance of the frequency distribution plot when using a dark theme.
