November Talk: Łukasz Kosiński "A Qt Framework Retrospective"

Hello C++ User Group,

We will have another meetup this year. Łukasz Kosiński will speak about:

"128 Qt and C++ Projects Later: A Sober Look at the Qt Framework"

Abstract:

After being involved in over 128 Qt and C++ projects, I will summarize the journey through the landscape of the Qt framework.

We'll discuss what the Qt framework is and diving a bit into its history. For the C++ enthusiasts, we’ll delve into the core characteristics and mechanisms that make Qt a choice for many. Real-life examples? Absolutely. I'll share some fascinating case studies from my journey that highlight both the might and the missteps of Qt. And, of course, no journey is complete without some reflection: we'll celebrate the strengths of Qt but also take an honest, no-holds-barred look at the concerns and issues faced by its users.

Target Audience:

This talk is designed for anyone curious about the Qt framework, whether you’re a seasoned C++ developer, someone considering Qt for their next project, or just a tech enthusiast wanting a peek behind the curtain.

This meetup session will be online.

Date: Tuesday, 7. November 2023

Start: 19:00

End: 21:00

Place: Online (Youtube Live-Stream with Jitsi QA Session afterwards)

Please feel free to propose your talk for one of the remaining sessions of the year!

Cheers!

Andreas
