C.1 official QT Resources

Major companies around the world and independent developers join the QT development community every day. They have realized that the QT architecture can speed up application development. These developers can use QT unified and direct APIs, powerful build systems, and various support tools (such as QT designer) to develop single-platform software or cross-platform software).

Qt has a very dynamic and beneficial user community. Users can communicate through the QT-interest email list and QT centre website (www.qtcentre.org) in the following ways) and other community websites and blogs. In addition, many QT developers are also active members of the KDE community. Every quarter, QT customers receive our developer newsletter QT quarterly. Today, the QT user community also provides more and more third-party commercial software and open-source software. For the latest information, visit www.qtsoftware.com.

A series of documents of QT can be accessed online at doc.qtsoftware.com. In addition, for a detailed introduction to QT programming, there are also a series of books in English, French, German, Russian, Japanese and Chinese versions on the market. Qt's official book is C ++ GUI programming with QT 4 (ISBN 0-13-187249-4 ).

Nokia and its partners provide a range of training options for Qt, qtopia, and C ++, including open course training for public customers and on-site training for customers with special needs. For more information, visit www.qtsoftware.com/training /.

In addition to providing a comprehensive framework for C ++ developers, QT can also be programmed in other languages. Qt itself contains the qtscript module, a technology similar to Javascript. With this technology, developers can write scripts to allow users to access certain areas of the application.

Nokia also provides the QT Jambi (which has been developed by the Community) technology, which allows Java developers to use QT Based on the Java programming language.

In addition, Nokia and third-party companies provide language binding for Javascript, Python, Perl, and Ruby. Many of these solutions are provided and maintained by the Open Source Development Team.
