Description

Qt is a cross-platform application development framework widely used for developing applications that can run on a wide range of hardware platforms with little to no change in the underlying codebase. If you have basic knowledge of C++ and want to build desktop or mobile applications with a modern graphical user interface (GUI), Qt is the right choice for you. Cross-Platform Development with Qt 6 and Modern C++ helps you understand why Qt is one of the favorite GUI frameworks adopted by industries worldwide, covering the essentials of programming GUI apps across a multitude of platforms using the standard C++17 and Qt 6 features. Starting with the fundamentals of the Qt framework, including the features offered by Qt Creator, this practical guide will show you how to create classic user interfaces using Qt Widgets and touch-friendly user interfaces using Qt Quick. As you advance, you'll explore the Qt Creator IDE for developing applications for multiple desktops as well as for embedded and mobile platforms. You will also learn advanced concepts about signals and slots. Finally, the book takes you through debugging and testing your app with Qt Creator IDE. By the end of this book, you'll be able to build cross-platform applications with a modern GUI along with the speed and power of native apps.

Who is this book for?

This book is for application developers who want to use C++ and Qt to create modern, responsive applications that can be deployed to multiple operating systems such as Microsoft Windows, Apple macOS, and Linux desktop platforms. Although no prior knowledge of Qt is expected, beginner-level knowledge of the C++ programming language and object-oriented programming system (OOPs) concepts will be helpful.

Hello everyone,I am writing this review to review this great book which I just finished reading. Having more than 7 years of Qt programming experience, I can confidently say , this is one of the best book, I have read on Qt programming.I was trying to move to Qt6 for a while and this book really came very handy. Having gone through this book end to end , I can say this book is a good resource for somebody who is new to Qt programming or Like me who has several years of Qt programming experience.Examples are very detailed and provide a cleaner usage of the framework.I would highly recommend this book to Qt programmers and non Qt programmers who are thinking of diving into Qt programming.I appreciate the detailed examples written by the author.

The book is very well presented and the Content layout is very Good. I have gone through many QT books but this was very useful and covering most of the required topics which is a need of a Modern Qt Programmer.I always like books with Big font which is also a good feature of any book especially if you read a hard copy in your hand.

I found the book wholesome, as it covers all aspects of QT6 that you would need to get started. It also covers the topic of installation from source for Linux users, which was great for avid Ubuntu user like me. along with Linux, it also covers Windows and MacOS, which basically caters to a wide range of people to get started on QT6. The step by step, pictorial representation of the instructions help a lot if you are facing issues during the learning process. One of the interesting chapters was the performance optimization one which covered ideas on how to better optimize your application which introduces readers to the idea of bettering their developed application. The book covers a wide range of topics which include - Cross Platform Development, Signals and Slots, Graphics and Animation, Testing, Deployment etc. The author has quite eloquently described the processes and steps to learn QT6 throughout the book.A must read for QT6 Enthusiasts.

If you really want to learn in depth about qt then just go for it. Nicely written and up-to-date. Moreover this book have easy to understand examples. Last author also covers the optimization and what are the best practices for qt and qml.

As a beginner in this area, this book was amazingly helpful. The explanations are so clear and easy to follow, and it really does a great job of introducing all the latest features of Qt6. What makes the book unique is how it includes practical projects and hands-on examples that make learning so enjoyable.Nibedit's writing style is engaging and makes even the most complex concepts seem simple. The coverage of GUI development, networking, and multimedia is so comprehensive, and I really appreciate the integration of C++17. If you're diving into Qt6, this book is a must-have.Will highly recommend.
