Plasma Components – what you should know about this GSoC Project.

“I’m here to talk about my GSoC project (m/), the plasma
components. As you may know, QML is a declarative language to build
rich interfaces introduced in Qt 4.7 by providing simple
primitives. As it is a powerful way to develop interfaces and it’s
the future of UI development for Qt was necessary to make the
plasma support it.

“Create interfaces in QML is really easy and fast but sometimes
we need common widgets and may be boring to reimplement and
replicate them in every application we create (e.g. Button, Slider,
ScrollBar). For avoid this code replication, the Qt Components
project was created to unify an API for a set of components.”
