Video: Creating Qt Apps using the Nokia Qt SDK for Symbian & Maemo

   

 

To illustrate how easy it is to get started creating mobile Qt apps using the Nokia Qt SDK, chief engineer Lucian Tomuta shares his expertise in this video guide. This video is a great introduction to the Nokia Qt SDK for Symbian developers.

Lucian provides an insight into creating apps that run on Symbian devices. He demonstrates how the Nokia Qt SDK is installed and a first project created from the Qt calculator example. After running the app in the Qt Simulator, Lucian adapts the app to a mobile device by adjusting the layout and screen use. The optimised app is then run on a Nokia N8.

Maemo:

To illustrate how easy it is to get started creating mobile Qt apps using the Nokia Qt SDK, chief engineer Ville Vainio shares his expertises in this video guides. This video is a great introduction to the Nokia Qt SDK for Linux developers.

Ville shows how to convert a desktop application, in this case a Reddit reader, to run on the Maemo platform based Nokia N900. After providing a brief introduction to the desktop version, Ville demonstrates how the app can be tailored to the Nokia N900 by adjusting the behaviour of windows, adding a back button and busy indicator, and setting the app to switch orientation as the device is rotated.
