== Programming Language Support & Language Bindings ==
 
The Qt API is implemented in C++, and provides additional features for easier cross-platform development. QML – introduced with Qt Quick is a CSS and JavaScript-like declarative, language designed to describe the user interface of a program: both what it looks like, and how it behaves. Bindings to Qt exist for several other languages, including Ada, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Ruby, Python and Java™.
 
== C++ Development with Qt ==
 
Qt provides an intuitive C++ class library with a rich set of application build blocks for C++ development. Qt goes beyond C++ in the areas of inter-object communication and flexibility for advanced GUI development. Qt adds the following features to C+'':
 
* Powerful mechanism for inter-object communication called [https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/signalsandslots.html signals and slots]
* Queryable and designable [https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/properties.html#qt-s-property-system object properties ]
* Powerful [https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/eventsandfilters.html events and events filters ]
* Contextual [https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/i18n.html string translation for internationalization ]
* Sophisticated interval driven [https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/timers.html timers] that make it possible to elegantly integrate many tasks in an event-driven GUI
* Hierarchical and queryable [https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/objecttrees.html object trees] that organize object ownership in a natural way
* [https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qpointer.html Guarded pointers] that are automatically set to 0 when the referenced object is destroyed, unlike normal C++ pointers which become dangling pointers when their objects are destroyed
* A [https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/metaobjects.html dynamic cast ] works across library boundaries.
 
== QML Development with Qt Quick ==
 
QML is a declarative, JavaScript-based language designed to describe the user interface of a program: both what it looks like, and how it behaves. In QML, a user interface is specified as a tree of objects with properties.
 
* JavaScript, HTML and CSS skills can be used to code complete apps
* Optimized for touch-based, animated mobile UIs
* Includes a set of graphical and behavioral building blocks: [http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qdeclarativeelements.html QML Elements ]
* No C++ knowledge required for UI creation, but can be extended with C++
