Course Description

This 3-day course focuses on developing modern applications for embedded systems and desktops using Qt Quick. The target audience is accustomed to the widget classes and is looking to implement UI using QML instead. It assumes a working knowledge of the Qt core and widget classes. The course will present the latest Qt Quick techniques for implementation of UI and UI behavior, the interaction between C++ and QML, user interaction, animations and state machines. Additionally you will learn debugging, profiling and unit testing techniques. The course includes hands-on lab assignments.
