Qt 5 QML Intermediate: Interfacing to C++

Unlock the Power of Qt: Connecting C++ Backend to Dynamic Qt Quick UIs

Important Note: This course is updated for Qt 6. Beginners should take the Qt 6 introductory course. This course is specifically for those targeting Qt 5.

Dive into Qt Quick, the cutting-edge UI design technology from the Qt Framework. Build fluid, dynamic, and cross-platform user interfaces that run seamlessly on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS, and embedded devices. Leverage the power of C++ with easy integration into your Qt Quick applications.

This course teaches you essential techniques to seamlessly integrate a robust C++ backend with a stunning Qt Quick UI. You'll explore various facilities within the Qt framework to write efficient Qt code for creating captivating UIs in QML and connecting them to powerful C++ code for demanding operations.

Ideal for: Developers already familiar with Qt C++ and Qt Quick (QML) who want to master communication between the two. If you're new to either, consider our introductory courses first.

What you'll learn:

• Calling C++ methods from QML: Efficiently interact with your C++ code from your user interface.
• Calling JavaScript/QML methods from C++: Enable communication in both directions for flexible application logic.
• Q_PROPERTY mechanism: Propagate properties and changes between C++ and QML for reactive UIs.
• Data Transformation: Understand how data is handled when moving between QML and C++.
• REST API Client Demo: A live demonstration of downloading data in C++ and displaying it in Qt Quick.
• Type Registration in C++: Register custom types in C++ for use in Qt Quick, enabling the creation of custom QML elements.
• Advanced QML Properties: Master Object Properties, List Properties, Default Properties, Attached Properties, and Property Value Sources to create more readable and usable QML APIs.

Why Qt?

Qt is a leading platform used by thousands of software projects and major companies worldwide. Mastering the connection between C++ and Qt Quick will unlock the full potential of Qt for modern application development.
