Qt5 GUI Programming with Python
Duration: 5 Days
Course Overview
Python and one of its QT bindings, PyQT, has changed the face of GUI development. PyQt makes it possible to prototype and develop attractive and powerful GUIs faster then coding them using C++ with Qt5. Using the QT Designer tool it is possible to develop GUIs in a visual manner, using drag and drop to add and position widgets. The QT Designer-generated code can then be converted into pure Python code.
This course is for those who are already familiar with Python programming and wish to extend their skills to design and develop cross platform GUIs. The course will provide an opportunity to explore the various Qt widgets that are available, techniques for controlling the layout of widgets as well as styling techniques. The course will also cover the implementation of GUIs to connect to SQL databases. The course will be based on PyQt5.
