Qt 5 beta released

Qt 5 Beta is released – still on the nokia.com lab blogs pages.

http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2012/08/30/qt-5-beta-is-here/

The Qt 5 Beta is now available as the first major release under the new Qt Project umbrella. A big thank you goes out to all who contributed to this milestone. With this Qt 5 beta release, I would also like to invite everybody interested to go, try, and experience this next major version of Qt. Your feedback now will be very important in making the final release of Qt 5.0 as good as possible.

It’s now 15 months since we announced the start of Qt 5 development, and I am really happy to see what has been achieved during this time. All of the major architectural changes that we planned for have been implemented. At the same time, the community around Qt and qt-project.org has seen a nice and healthy growth.

Qt 5 will make it easier and faster to create:

• Smooth, accelerated graphics performance with limited resources. Qt 5 makes better use of the GPU to deliver better performance on inexpensive hardware. For example, using Qt 5 you can achieve 60 fps performance on a $35 single-board computer like Raspberry Pi. – See the Qt on Pi project for more info.
• Advanced UIs and applications written in QML and JavaScript. See the Qt Media Hub as an example
• Powerful apps connected to the web
