ABOUT THIS COURSE
Getting started is more important than anything else. Coding a graphical user interface (GUI) can be thought of as a combination between programming and graphic design skills. The needs of users are crucial for establishing usability and graphical appearance; being aware of these needs will help guide you throughout your process. Programming a GUI is often a matter of finding the suitable component, referred to as widgets, to complete a task and then applying the necessary programming skills to make them operational.
This course will show how to use the Python programming language and the PyQt6 toolkit to create GUIs. With PyQt6, many of the components are already created for us to use. We can also create our own custom widgets and classes as well with PyQt6.
