A few weeks back I took an on-site contract far away from home and could not bring all of my toys so the Qt on Pi stuff is on hold until this contract ends. My apologies. I will still be writing the occasional blog post but they will be “thought pieces” instead of coding pieces.

Raspberry Qt – Part 12 – QML Blows Big Stinky Chunks
Given all of the rah-rah about QML and all of the calls I get about it I think it is time for a level headed appraisal.

You don’t give your battery powered contraption which has … Raspberry Qt – Part 12 – QML Blows Big Stinky ChunksRead more
