Create simple GUI Applications with Python and Qt

Learn how to build simple GUI applications with Python and Qt. Includes an example App: Build your own PyQt web browser!

Welcome to Creating Simple GUI Applications where we’re going to use Python and Qt to do just that.

So why did I make this course?

If you want to learn to build GUI applications with Python the learning curve is pretty steep. There is a lot you need to know just to get something to work.

Many tutorials offer only screen casts and miss the simple concepts that actually matter. Like writing any code, successfully writing PyQt GUI applications is all about thinking in the right way. In this course I give you the real useful basics that you need to get building PyQt applications as quickly as possible. I include explanations, diagrams, walk-throughs and code to make sure you know what you’re doing every step of the way.

By the end of the first 8 minute lesson you will have a running Qt application – ready to customi`e as you like. So, lets get started!
