I'm just starting to learn how to code by beginning to learn the basics of Web Development (HTML5, CSS3 & JavaScript) but in the future I would also like to build my own software using appropriate languages but I was curious as to how QuiteRSS was build and what it's coded in. I know it says C++ and Qt but is that what the whole software is coded in?, also what is Qt?. Some other questions I have are:
(1.) How long did it take to make QuiteRSS?
(2.) How did you learn to code & do you do it as a job?
(3.) What inspired you to create your own Feed reader?
Qt: https://www.qt.io/
We tried a lot of other readers, but they did not completely suit us. Then we started to study Qt and decided to write a reader for ourselves. We were so carried away by the process that we decided to put the reader on the network so that other people could try it. We worked on the program in our free time, it's like a hobby. Since 2011, history: https://quiterss.org/en/node/20.
We began to be helped by people from different countries. Our team: https://quiterss.org/en/team
Is Qt what QuiteRSS is written in?, whats the C++ used for then?
C ++ is a programming language. And Qt is a tool.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qt_(software)
So Qt is basically a software that allows you to build the UI without needing to write the code yourself?, like a Framework?
So what made you choose C++ for QuiteRSS?, also any advice for a complete beginner in learning to program.
Yes, in Qt there are basic visual components. We still need to write code so that the components meet our requirements. In addition, we did not use the designer, but described the visual part in the code.
We already knew this language. Here, the choice was made more because we wanted to know Qt better. Sorry for my english
