| == Programming Language Support & Language Bindings ==
| | #REDIRECT [[Language Bindings]] |
| | |
| The Qt API is implemented in C++, and provides additional features for easier cross-platform development. QML – introduced with Qt Quick is a CSS and JavaScript-like declarative, language designed to describe the user interface of a program: both what it looks like, and how it behaves. Bindings to Qt exist for several other languages, including Ada, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Ruby, Python and Java™.

| | |
| == C++ Development with Qt ==
| |
| | |
| Qt provides an intuitive C++ class library with a rich set of application build blocks for C++ development. Qt goes beyond C++ in the areas of inter-object communication and flexibility for advanced GUI development. Qt adds the following features to C+'':
| |
| | |
| * Powerful mechanism for inter-object communication called "signals and slots":https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/signalsandslots.html
| |
| * Queryable and designable "object properties ":https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/properties.html#qt-s-property-system
| |
| * Powerful "events and events filters ":https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/eventsandfilters.html
| |
| * Contextual "string translation for internationalization ":https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/i18n.html
| |
| * Sophisticated interval driven "timers":https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/timers.html that make it possible to elegantly integrate many tasks in an event-driven GUI
| |
| * Hierarchical and queryable "object trees":https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/objecttrees.html that organize object ownership in a natural way
| |
| * "Guarded pointers":https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qpointer.html that are automatically set to 0 when the referenced object is destroyed, unlike normal C++ pointers which become dangling pointers when their objects are destroyed
| |
| * A "dynamic cast ":https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/metaobjects.html works across library boundaries.
| |
| | |
| == QML Development with Qt Quick ==
| |
| | |
| QML is a declarative, JavaScript-based language designed to describe the user interface of a program: both what it looks like, and how it behaves. In QML, a user interface is specified as a tree of objects with properties.
| |
| | |
| * JavaScript, HTML and CSS skills can be used to code complete apps
| |
| * Optimized for touch-based, animated mobile UIs
| |
| * Includes a set of graphical and behavioral building blocks: "QML Elements ":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qdeclarativeelements.html
| |
| * No C++ knowledge required for UI creation, but can be extended with C++
