Summary


In this chapter, we took a whirlwind tour of the Qt Widgets module. We learned about some of the basic widgets available, and the signals, slots, and properties they provide. We also learned about Qt's application of the MVC paradigm and how for complex widgets like list and tree views, Qt separates concerns into a model and a view, letting us implement new data models for your application, or create new views based on those data models. Finally, we learned about Qt's support for the WebKit browser, letting us build hybrid applications that incorporate the best of JavaScript and HTML with the best of Qt.

In the next chapter, we move on from widgets to low-level drawing, which we can use to either implement our own widgets or basic pixel-based rendering applications.
