+
+
+
+<p> We assume that you already know C++!
+<p> The best way to learn TQt is to read the official TQt book, <a
+href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0131240722/trolltech/">
+C++ GUI Programming with TQt 3 (ISBN 0-13-124072-2)</a>.
+
+This book provides comprehensive coverage of TQt programming all the
+way from "Hello TQt" to advanced features like multithreading, 2D and
+3D graphics, networking, and XML.
+<p> <a href="http://www.trolltech.com/training/">http://www.trolltech.com/training/</a>{TQt and TQtopia training} is also
+available. This takes the form of open enrollment courses for the
+public and on-site training for you and your colleagues.
+<p> If you can't get hold of the official book, or if you can't wait for
+it to arrive then here is our suggested learning programme.
+<p> Read the <a href="http://www.trolltech.com/products/qt/whitepaper.html">TQt Whitepaper</a> first. This provides an overview of TQt's
+facilities and has snippets of code which demonstrate the TQt approach
+to programming. It gives you the 'big picture'.
+<p> If you want to program purely in C++, designing your interfaces in
+code without the aid of any design tools, read the tutorials. <a href="tutorial.html">Tutorial #1</a> is designed to get you into TQt
+programming, with the emphasis on working code rather than being a
+tour of features. <a href="tutorial2.html">Tutorial #2</a> presents a
+more realistic example, demonstrating how to code menus, toolbars,
+file loading and saving, dialogs, etc.
+<p> If you want to design your user interfaces using a design tool, then
+read at least the first few chapters of the <a href="designer-manual.html">TQt Designer manual</a>. After this, it is still worthwhile trying
+the pure C++ Tutorials (<a href="tutorial.html">Tutorial #1</a> and
+<a href="tutorial2.html">Tutorial #2</a>) mentioned above.
+<p> By now you'll have produced some small working applications and have a
+broad feel for TQt programming. You could start work on your own
+projects straight away, but we recommend reading a couple of key
+overviews to deepen your understanding of TQt: the <a href="object.html">TQt Object Model</a> and <a href="signalsandslots.html">Signals and Slots</a>.
+<p> At this point we recommend looking at the <a href="overviews-list.html">overviews</a> and reading those that are relevant to your
+projects. You may also find it useful to browse the source code of the
+<a href="examples.html">examples</a> that have things in common with
+your projects. You can also read TQt's source code since this is
+supplied.
+<p> If you run the <tt>demo</tt> application (in <tt>$QTDIR/examples/demo</tt>)
+you'll see many of TQt's widgets in action.
+<p> TQt comes with extensive documentation, with hypertext cross-references
+throughout, so you can easily click your way to whatever interests
+you. The part of the documentation that you'll probably use the most
+is the <a href="index.html">API Reference</a>. Each link provides a
+different way of navigating the API Reference; try them all to see
+which work best for you. You might also like to try <a href="assistant.html">TQt Assistant</a>: this tool is supplied with TQt and
+provides access to the entire TQt API, and it provides a full text
+search facility. There are also a growing number of <a href="http://www.trolltech.com/developer/books.html">TQt
+books</a>.
+<p> You should now be ready to ground-break: good luck, and have fun!
