Modern application development demands the seamless blending of beautiful design and effective functionality. This hands-on workshop explores how to build modern, intuitive GUI applications using PyQt and QML. Participants will learn PyQt fundamentals, including widgets, signals, and slots, and then progress to designing intuitive HMIs using QML. The workshop emphasizes best practices for integrating Python logic with QML interfaces, ensuring clean separation of design and backend functionality. Attendees will also explore real-world extensions such as database access, network communication, and IoT integration, culminating in a small case study that brings it all together. Ideal for developers aiming to build scalable, responsive, and middleware-aware desktop or embedded applications for IoT, Automotive use cases.
