Revision as of 08:44, 30 May 2012

We are looking for brave & experienced developers willing to port or develop apps running on top of Qt 5 before its finally release. Currently Qt 5 alpha is released, the beta version is expected during June and the final in August/September.

The main motivations for this activity are mixture of:

  • Helping testing Qt 5 itself and providing feedback while it's alpha/beta.
  • Helping testing the Qt 5 libraries for the Nokia N9.
  • Getting stories of real apps ported from Qt 4 to Qt 5. Trivial? Horrible? What are the pain points? And what about Qt Creator and the documentation available?
  • Getting developers to play with the new toys: Qt Quick 2, textures, transitions, graphics / video effects, raw OpenGL ES stuff, post-Mobility APIs, the new Qt WebKit, JSON DB, ongoing R&D on PhoneGap own JQuery based experiments...

This is the same motivation we have for the QtonPi program, but for mobile development the N9 provides a touch display and many more sensors and hardware features that bare bones boards are missing.

How to apply

Developers with a good Qt development track must apply to that thread pointing to any of these sources:

  • Your Qt 4 applications, all the better if they are ready for mobile e.g. with QML UI.
  • Your maemo.org profile, Qt DevNet profile, Ohloh profile or anything showing who are you and what have you done in terms of development and community involvement.

Questions and feedback about the submissions are welcome in this forum thread.

  8. Tutorials and Docs, by Johan Thelin (e8johan) - Qt5 and QML needs to be documented for it to gain a larger audience. I'm willing to do this.
  9. Dynamic QImage tools for the Quru Image Server by Roland Whitehead We’ve developed an image server used for the world’s biggest single source collection of on-line dynamic images (1.6mil and growing) and we want to produce a toolkit based on QImage and QML image elements to run on multiple Qt platforms (Desktop and mobile). Currently working on desktop version. More info
  10. VirtualVoiceNet, by Stuart Marsden (stuartmarsden) - This application provides a push to talk all informed very low bandwidth voice network. It uses multicast and encodes voice using codec2 which provides very low rate voice. It is currently a QtWidget based app but plan to port to Qt5 with a QML interface. This would be an ideal mobile app as it would allow disconnected communities to form a mesh network using B.A.T.M.A.N. and then talk. Could also be used at conferences or family gatherings to aid communication. Planning to have this true multi-platform (am waiting for a QtonPi and already runs on the desktop).
