Stay up-to-date and get inspiration from KDAB’s expert insights into Qt, C++ and OpenGL development.
Our engineers and designers share cutting-edge technology news and ideas with regard to Qt, QML, Qt on Android, OpenGL, Qt 3D, Vulkan, Scalable UIs and more embedded, mobile and desktop-related topics.
Showing how to derive the projection matrix, this second part of the series teaches how to create perspective projection matrices for Vulkan and adapt them to your needs.
We’re happy to announce KDDockWidgets version 2.0, a major milestone that brings many improvements and architectural enhancements to our powerful docking library. KDDockWidgets is a versatile framework for custom-tailored docking systems in Qt written by KDAB’s Sérgio Martins. For more information about its rich set of features, take a gander at its GitHub repository. What […]
For quite some time, I have been bothered by this thought: Individual programming languages (C++, Rust, Go, etc.) are traditionally viewed as walled gardens. If your main() function is written in C++, you had better find yourself C++ libraries like Qt to build the rest of your codebase with. Do you want to use Flutter […]
We just released CXX-Qt version 0.6! CXX-Qt is a set of Rust crates for creating bidirectional Rust ⇄ C++ bindings with Qt. It can be used to integrate Rust into C++ applications using CMake or build Rust applications with Cargo. CXX-Qt provides tools for implementing QObject subclasses in Rust that can be used from C++, […]
This post explains the difference between OpenGL and Vulkan transformations and how to adapt code to get the desired results, plus actually understanding what's going on.
In a previous blog we demonstrated the most straightforward method to optimize Visual Studio Code for a Qt / C++ environment: simply let the tools do all the work! The example GitHub project we discussed automatically installs both the Microsoft C/C++ and clangd extensions into VS Code. You might wonder why you need both C++ […]
Our colleague Alessandro Ambrosano created a series of blogs (parts 1, 2, and 3) that explain how to get Visual Studio Code configured for Qt development. In that series, Alessandro covers all the details you need to get your VS Code environment configured exactly the way you want it. But there’s a lot there to […]
KDAB is proud to be a Silver Sponsor at this year’s Meeting C++, a highly recommended 3-day hybrid event for the European C++ community, offering 44 Talks in 4 tracks, November 12th – 14th. While this is also an in-person event, there is a substantial concurrent online program, so that high-class international speakers can easily […]
We’re happy to announce a new addition to our training portfolio, ‘Embedded Rust’, an online training taking place over a period of 6 half-days, and conducted by our partner, Ferrous Systems.
Today’s blog post is about a small utility class in Qt with a… questionable name: QPointer. If you’re new to Qt, maybe don’t check out QPointer’s documentation just yet, and try to guess what the class does based on its name alone. I’ve seen countless users being very confused by it. Some end up using […]
