Hardware Graphics APIs for Qt6 - Video
3D and Qt 6 (Part 3)
26 October 2023
In this video, we review the evolution of APIs to access graphics hardware, and the evolution of Qt rendering in parallel. Then we look at the abstractions and features created by Qt to take advantage of modern graphics hardware while remaining portable to a wide range of platforms. Finally, we look at what this means for integrating our own or third-party renderers into Qt 6.
