This video is for intermediate Python programmers who wish to enhance their Python skills by writing powerful GUIs in Python using PyQt.

Python and one of its QT
bindings, PyQT, has changed the face of GUI development. It allows us to
build beautiful and powerful GUIs that grab the attention of Python
programmers. QT5 has several advantages over other GUI frameworks such
as tkinter and wxPython.

In
this video, we will successfully install PyQt5 and the toolset that
contains the QT Designer tool. The QT Designer enables us to develop our
GUI in a visual manner, using drag and drop to add and position
widgets, and we will use it extensively. We will then learn how to
convert QT Designer-generated code into pure Python code.

After
having successfully installed PyQt5, the QT Designer, and all other
required QT tools, we will start out simple, building a Python GUI using
only a few lines of PyQT5 code. Then, we will build a more complex GUI
using QT Designer. Along the way, we will explore many QT widgets and
learn how to efficiently lay out our GUI design. We will enhance the
look-and-feel of the GUI using CSS styling. We will also connect our GUI
to a SQL database, which we will create. We decouple the business logic
code from the UI code, using best practices. At the end of this video
tutorial, viewers will be able to develop complex GUIs using PyQt5.
