What is the best way to achieve a good look and feel for the Qt apps.
-
Qt with HTML5 integration
-
QML controls
-
Any idea?

Ansif@ansifpi Pretty open question and a very subjective one.
It really depends on what you're developing. I use Qt Controls for desktop based applications. If I want to get fancy I will use some QML to design my guis even on desktop but usually I just stick with controls.
I would recommend QML if you want to do mobile GUIs or if you want GUIs in the newer styles like slack, discord, etc.

I would say a careful design and preplanning of the interface and functions.
Consistency and presentation is paramount for a good interface. -
Hi,
Thanks for all the quick info. I found the replies just now as i didn't get any email notifications, I need to check whether my email notifications is running well.
I found very good UI created by KDAB and some other companies. But i think its a mix of photoshop and Qt/QML controls. But being not professional in photoshop i think we have rely completely on Qt/QML.
Besides i found another thread asking the same question, https://www.toradex.com/community/questions/8690/problem-while-running-qt-demo-and-and-how-to-build.html. But it also didnt get any proper reply yet.
Qt is amazing with C++, but to compete with Android or iOS platform or the current market, the UI should be invincible.

Ansif@ansifpi Yea I don't think the email thing works. It has never worked for me anyway.
QML should be able to do any gui you want on a mobile device for sure. I haven't done mobile programming without Qt so I don't know if it's lacking, but I've never run into anything I can't do in QML. It's like having full CSS/HTML5/JS to design your GUIs wrapped into a simple markup language to implement it all.
To do any real professional UI you will need to have some graphical ability or hire a graphic artist with UI/UX experience to design your GUI. I have enough experience to make a decent UI but I still can't compete with the actual artists that have UI/UX experience. I'm just not artsy enough.
If you end up needing someone I know a couple guys I have bought graphics from for my apps in the past I can hook you up with. One is fairly cheap (at least by US standards), the other is really really good, but decently expensive.

Hi @ambershark ,
I just tried using the Google Material design, https://github.com/martinrotter/qt-material-stylesheet which looks much better than the previous one. I think there are excellent style sheets available for a better look and feel.
Hiring an UI/UX designer is a good option, but we just started our project and learning Qt as well. If project went well, i will definitely check for a designer. Will update you soon.
Really thankful for your support.
Regards
