QML by Design
Qt QML was developed to be a declarative language for user interfaces, somewhat akin to HTML, with an eye toward making it approachable for designers, particularly those with web design experience. This webinar will touch on the benefits of having designers trained in the same framework the programmers are using. Rather than relying heavily on prior programming knowledge and jargon, we approach the material visually, introducing the graphical building blocks used to assemble a modern user interface.
SIGGRAPH 2017
ICS will be at SIGGRAPH 2017, the world’s largest, most influential annual conference and exhibition in computer graphics and interactive techniques: Five days of research results, demos, educational sessions, art, screenings, and hands-on interactivity featuring the community’s latest technical achievements, and three days of commercial exhibits displaying the industry’s current hardware, software, and services.
