  • Abstract/description
A complete walkthrough of creating applications for the Maemo platform with Python and Qt. The presentation would contain two segments, the first being the 'why' - introduction to underlying technologies, the rationale of using Python and Qt as a development platform on Maemo and a short demo of a few projects built with these tools.
The second segment of the presentation focuses on the 'how' in a nutshell: How to setup up a proper PyQt development environment, how to develop most efficiently, how to debug, how to profile and optimize, platform caveats and gotchas, packaging considerations.
