<![CDATA[Card game interface and functionality]]>Hi guys,

I'll cut straight to the chase here. As you can probably guess, I'm creating a card game in C++. I'm quite new to the language, but it's going very good so far. I'm soon to start working on graphical side of the project, problem is - have absolutely no experience in this yet. I'd like to get some guidelines, a breakdown of the process that would point me to the right direction, because at the moment everything seems a bit foggy and overwhelming, simply because I don't know where to start.

how has your progress been so far, and did you decide for QML?
I would highly recommend using QML for the UI of your game, as it is better suited for mobile and a more rapid development approach than C++.
If you do not have any performance-sensitive code, I would even try using JavaScript/QML for the game logic as well.

Our games for example are purely based on QML & JavaScript with some of the more performance-sensitive tasks like path finding written in C++. You can have a look at the source code of them here: http://v-play.net/doc/vplay-examples/

Cheers,
Chris

I've been googling around and came across qt creator, which seems like a good place to start getting to know qt. Stay tuned, I'm sure I'll run into something sooner or later

Welcome to DevNet.
Well, if you need just a card game interface you can use QGraphicsView for that. For example check "Animated Tiles Example":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qtwidgets-animation-animatedtiles-example.html
But for game developing on Qt, most people prefer "QML":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qml-advtutorial.html
