Nokia announces new QT 5 Framework

Nokia have announced their plans for the year 2012 in desktop developing, they are planning to release the new Qt5 Framework for Linux their objectives for the next Release QT 5 are:

  • Make better use of the GPU, allowing you to create smooth (and accelerated) graphics performance even with limited resources;
  • Making your creation of advanced applications and UIs easier and faster (with QML and Javascript);
  • Make apps connected to the web be as powerful as possible, i.e. to embed and power up web content and services into any Qt app; and
  • Reduce the complexity and amount of code required to maintain and implement a port.
