December Recap - Qt Academy
-
Hey Everyone!
It is nearly the holidays! So before we settle into our hot chocolate and endless holiday treats, Let's recap again what's been going on with Qt Academy.
Esri x Qt: Exploring with ArcGIS Maps SDK for Qt
During Qt World Summit 2023, we publicly announced our next featured learning path with Esri! They are the world's leading supplier of geographic information system (GIS) software, web GIS, and geodatabase management applications. Founded in 1969, the company is known for its flagship product, ArcGIS, a comprehensive GIS software suite that offers mapping and spatial analysis tools. Throughout the path, you will learn how to create a simple mapping application with the ArcGIS Maps SDK for Qt. The app will display the user's location, display their path as they move around, and implement the ability to download a specified area for offline accessibility. The path is designed to provide you with a sandbox of exploration to explore Qt and the ArcGIS Maps SDK.
Introduction to Signals and Slots
We have created a dedicated course with our customer success engineers to help explore the basics of enabling dynamic behavior and interactivity in Qt applications. This course covers their implementation within Qt 6, exploring what connections exist and how they are handled. We also cover the QML implementation and how to use them from Qt components.
Let's Get Thready! Multithreading with Qt
Explore multithreading concepts and basic concurrency within the context of building GUI applications with Qt. We will go through some basic concepts of concurrent programming and how these are implemented within Qt. You will explore these multithreading concepts with Qt within an example application provided. This is a great place to explore how to improve the performance of applications.
Qt Academy Public Roadmap
As we constantly grow and evolve Qt Academy, we want the community to help shape the content and tell us what matters the most to you! Therefore, we have published the Qt Academy Roadmap, which showcases all the courses and learning paths in progress and the suggested course ideas. You can vote on the courses you think are particularly important. This will help the Qt Academy team to prioritize the course creation process. You can also suggest new courses through this site. The Qt Academy Team will review the new ideas, and if accepted, they will be added to the Roadmap. So head over to the roadmap, see what is in progress, and help shape the future of Qt learning!
Enjoy the holiday season, keep learning, and we will see you in the new year!
