Qt/QML Workshop materials

Charby

I am animating a monthly Meetup at Nantes (France) to help federating Qt users, discuss about good practices and help newbies having a better learning curve. Every meetup is composed of a short introduction presentation and then followed by a workshop (various topics such using Camera, QtLocation module, sounds processing, computer vision...). Actually, this meetup is quite new and we only had 3 sessions so far but feedbacks were very positive...

I guess there are numbers of similar regular workshop in the world, but I haven't found a place where organizer could share their workshop material to avoid reinventing the wheel. That's the raison I am creating this topic : so that we can share knowledge, materials, propose workshop topic, give experience feedbacks etc...what do you think ?

I will start sharing our last meetup materials :

introduction - a short presentation (10-15mn) to have everyone having a minimal understanding of what mobile development, Qt and QML are...
the workshop - the topic was playing with QtPositioning and QtLocation modules : create a map, manage it, add static content, add POI using a model, a webservice and process route (actually for some reason I haven't been able to get the route working properly).

Feedbacks on this workshop were very positive. In fact, its content could have been splitted in 2 meetups.

Our february meetup session materials are now available.
This time, the workshop topic was the management of the Camera in QML - it is also the opportunity to see how to extend QML by creating new types in QML or C++.
The demo project can be found here. To demonstrate the C++ integration with QML, it contains a QR code reader using QZXing.

The next meetup topic (end of March) should be the new Qt quick controls 2.

All workshop materials were bookmarked. They're very helpful. Thanks!

I hope there's also a small group workshop/meetup here in Rome, where i can join. :)

@literA2 Thanks for your warm support ! Why don't you then your own meetup (or similar) in Rome ? We could share materials, experience and good practices. I have started the meetup in Nantes only 3 months ago but it is definitely a great experience to get to know others playing with Qt in the same area...

Our March meetup session materials are now available.
This time, the workshop aim was to discover the Qt.controls.labs. This time, I didn't create a new project for the workshop but used the Gallery example.
