Announcing Our New Limited Partner in the Softeq Venture Fund and Q2 2022 Cohort of Startups in the Venture Studio
Having a two-decade long track-record, Qt continues forging ahead reinforcing its position of a powerful cross-platform technology for crafting compelling, visually rich UIs and applications for a gamut of platforms.
With hands-on skills in C++ and a natural impetus to lock in more productive results, Softeq enthusiastically took up the role of a Qt developer years ago. Built of a comprehensive ecosystem of libraries and development tools, this advanced framework stands ‘head and shoulders’ above other rival technologies. Qt has been invaluable to Softeq’s software engineers in helping develop the most rewarding user experience by supporting impressive data visualization, fine 3D object rendering along with native-looking and fast-performing software solutions designed for some of the hottest industries that are currently on the surge.
Depending on your goals and desired end-solution application, we select the best-suitable approach to the UI development employing Qt’s ready-to-use controls and out-of-the box
functionality:
Qt Quick
Easily scalable adaptive custom UIs for various form factors with touch screen support.
Qt Widgets
Rapid UI prototyping for a traditional desktop-style user experience.
Web/Hybrid
HTML 5 for dynamic web docs, Qt Quick for a native like interaction.
Written once, the Qt driven source code base lends itself to excellent reuse on a dozen of most popular platforms, including mobile, desktop, embedded, as well as connected devices, with just a tidbit of minor tweaks required to bring the resulting UI to completion.
Suitable for customized mobile experience on:
Modern UI applications for:
Powering UI-driven embedded systems:
When it comes to developing UIs for embedded devices, no other technology is on par with Qt. Irrespective of whether the future device prototype is available or not, having just the expected embedded product screen resolution at hand will be sufficient for starting the UI development. Add here a lightweight customizable software stack and a special toolchain supplied with the pack, and we get a real ready-made embedded environment that runs on a variety of supported hardware. Direct device deployment, on-device debugging, and profiling speed-up the development process thus reducing the time-to-market.
Qt elegantly combines functionality of sleek and snappy UIs with productivity of native-looking apps. Thanks to the underlying C++ library classes, which have highly intuitive APIs and modular structure, the Qt framework provides robust cross-platform and multi-screen development capabilities. The Qt Quick tool allows building compelling custom, highly dynamic UIs featuring fluid animation and special effects functioning seamlessly across a variety of mobile devices. The Qt Creator IDE has all the productivity tools in place to notably accelerate the app development time
Qt is perfectly tailored for creating connected objects. For our team of seasoned software developers, electronics engineers, and embedded programmers, which proudly holds the Top IoT Developer title, this framework is the go-to toolchain for implementing seamlessly connected, clearly communicating, and intuitive IoT solutions. The technology allows wireless sensor-enabled devices to upload data into the Qt Cloud, which can be accessed and managed from any gadget in the loop — a mobile phone, tablet, desktop computer, or browser. The unifying feature is a scalable UI written in Qt/C++, which is reused for each client within the connected ecosystem.
