This book will guide you from the very basics of creating a fully functional GUI application using PyQT with only a few lines of code. Each and every recipe adds more widgets to the GUIs we are creating.
You will learn how easy it is to get started and you might be surprised how advanced you can become in just a short time of coding. While the cookbook recipes all stand on their own, there is a common theme running through all of them. As our GUIs keep expanding, using more and more widgets, we start to talk to networks, databases, and graphical libraries that greatly enhance our GUI’s functionality. Next, the book leads you to how to use QT Designer to design user interfaces, and to implement and test dialogs, events, the Clipboard, and drag-and-drop. It covers a variety of topics such as look-and-feel customization, GUI animation, graphics rendering, implementing Google Maps, and more. Lastly,the book takes you to the added new widgets and focuses the ability of QT5 for writing Android/IOS apps.This book will teach you how to develop functional and appealing software using PyQT through multiple projects that are interesting and fun. You will learn tons of useful information, and enjoy the process of working on the creative projects provided in this book. It will expand your knowledge on the subject of GUIs, and make sure you’re not missing out in the long run.
