Description

Unlike platform-specific libraries, Qt enables developers to code once and run it everywhere, natively, including mobile platforms! Moreover, Qt is open source and driven by communities around the world. 

With this comprehensive 2-in-1 course you will get an complete  insight into custom model-views, showcasing the power and flexibility of the model-view architecture. Moreover it additionally gives you deep drive into multimedia capture/manipulation, which play key roles in the mobile arena. Continuing the mobile trend, you will be walked throughQt's mobile offerings, including QtQuick, QML, and communicating between C++ and QML.

Contents and Overview

This training program includes 2 complete courses, carefully chosen to give you the most comprehensive training possible.

The first course, Learning Qt 5, enables developers to code once and run it everywhere, natively, including mobile platforms! Moreover, Qt is open source and driven by communities around the world. You’ll learn to work with both Qt (C++) and Qt Quick (QML) & also get familiar with common Qt modules and dive into GUI widgets.

The second course, Mastering Qt 5 GUI Programming is a powerful, cross-platform, graphics development framework. It provides a large set of consistent, standardized libraries and works on many major platforms, including embedded, mobile, desktop, and the web. You will also learn advanced Qt topics which includes an in-depth dive into custom model-views, showcasing the power and flexibility of the model-view architecture & much more.
