What Qt Quick has to offer
Ryan Paul of Arstechnica fame is a big fan of open source and just so happens to be an avid developer. In recent months he’s taken a tour of Nokia Qt Quick and associated SDK’s and has even managed to create a few applications as demonstrations of the capabilities of the Qt platform. Admittedly none of these applications are mobile targeted YET but they show great promise for what can and likely will be done in the future and is likely being implemented by Nokia’s own devs as  we speak.
The first demo is an Arstechnica  “feed wall” showing a grid of images correlating to news articles with a short excerpt/title on mouse-over. Obviously not “mobile friendly” but definitely good looking.
The latter is a screen shot posted from his twitter account of a micro-blogging client he’s been involved in creating called Gwibber.
I’ll be honest, if performance and functionality are as good as the looks, without taking into account how good previous versions have been and if the mobile UI is even  75% of this, they’ll certainly have a winner on their hands.
Hopeful of what full-time designers and programmers can do? You bet I am, I just hope they do it faster!! 🙂
