Programming Language Support & 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 Python, Ring, Go, Rust, PHP, 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
- Queryable and designable object properties
- Powerful events and events filters
- Contextual string translation for internationalization
- Sophisticated interval driven timers that make it possible to elegantly integrate many tasks in an event-driven GUI
- Hierarchical and queryable object trees that organize object ownership in a natural way
- Guarded pointers 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 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, like in JSON.
- 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 Types
- No C++ knowledge required for UI creation, while it can be extended with C++
