Summer'12 Device Program/Qt 5 Mobile Projects

2012-05-30T05:25:40Z

61.12.12.84: /* Submissions */

We are looking for brave & experienced developers willing to port or develop apps running on top of Qt 5 before its finally release. Currently [http://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt-5-Alpha Qt 5 alpha] is released, the beta version is expected during June and the final in August/September.

The main motivations for this activity are mixture of:
* Helping testing Qt 5 itself and providing feedback while it's alpha/beta.
* Helping testing the [http://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt-5-on-Nokia-N9 Qt 5 libraries for the Nokia N9].
* Getting stories of real apps ported from Qt 4 to Qt 5. Trivial? Horrible? What are the pain points? And what about Qt Creator and the documentation available?
* Getting developers to play with the new toys: Qt Quick 2, textures, transitions, graphics / video effects, raw OpenGL ES stuff, post-Mobility APIs, the new Qt WebKit, JSON DB, ongoing R&D on PhoneGap own JQuery based experiments...

This is the same motivation we have for the [http://qt-project.org/wiki/Category:QtonPi QtonPi] program, but for mobile development the N9 provides a touch display and many more sensors and hardware features that bare bones boards are missing.

== How to apply ==

Developers with a good Qt development track must apply to that thread pointing to any of these sources:
* Your Qt 4 applications, all the better if they are ready for mobile e.g. with QML UI.
* Your maemo.org profile, Qt DevNet profile, Ohloh profile or anything showing who are you and what have you done in terms of development and community involvement.

Questions and feedback about the submissions are welcome in [http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=84591 this forum thread].
