Hands-On Mobile and Embedded Development with Qt 5

Exploring the Qt Framework and APIs for Cross-Platform Application Development

Key Highlights: - Build cross-platform applications for mobile devices, embedded systems, and IoT - Design 2D and 3D UIs for embedded systems using Yocto and Qt Creator - Develop machine-to-machine automation solutions with QtSensors, QtMQTT, and QtWebSockets

The Qt framework is a powerful tool for developing rich graphical user interfaces (GUIs) and multi-platform applications that can run on all major desktop platforms and most mobile or embedded platforms. This book will guide you through leveraging the fully-featured Qt framework and its modular cross-platform library classes and intuitive APIs to create applications for mobile, IoT, and industrial embedded systems.

The book begins by exploring the latest features of Qt, such as the preview for Qt for Python and Qt for WebAssembly. You will then learn how to create fluid UIs with dynamic layouts for different screen sizes and deploy embedded applications on Linux systems using Yocto. The book delves into designing Qt APIs for building applications for embedded and mobile devices, focusing on connectivity, networking, and sensor integration. You will discover effective techniques to apply graphical effects using Qt Quick apps and explore connectivity solutions like Qt Bluetooth LE.

Furthermore, the book covers machine-to-machine communication, location and positioning, multimedia, remote databases with Qt SQL, and in-app purchases with Qt Purchasing. It also discusses cross-compiling, remote debugging, and deploying applications to mobile and embedded platforms. The book concludes by exploring the universal platform for mobile and embedded devices and building a Linux system using Yocto and Boot to Qt for Device Creation.

By the end of this book, you will have a comprehensive understanding of the Qt framework and its capabilities for building cross-platform applications for mobile, IoT, and embedded systems.
