Summary
By now, you should be able to install Qt on your development machine. You can now use Qt Creator to browse the existing examples and learn from them or to read the Qt reference manual to gain additional knowledge. You can also just start a new C++ project and start writing code for it, build, and execute it. Once you become an experienced Qt developer, you will also be able to make your own custom build of Qt. In the next chapter, we will finally start using the framework and you will learn how to create graphical user interfaces by implementing our very first simple game.
