The motto for the Qt Company is simple: "Code less. Create more. Deploy everywhere." It's a sensible leitmotif given that the company made the new Qt 5.5, the upgraded C++-based framework of libraries and tools for developing powerful, interactive and cross-platform applications and devices. Qt's support for multiple desktop, embedded and mobile operating systems allows developers to save significant time on application and device development simply by reusing one code. The most notable innovations in Qt 5.5 are the following: full Bluetooth Low Energy for Internet of Things deployments, a pre-built version of Qt for RHEL 6.6 and preliminary support for upcoming Windows 10 (full subsequent support to follow with a patch release). Other new features include extended support for multimedia and graphics creation with 3D capabilities as well as new multi-screen and IoT development features that strengthen overall performance across applications and devices.
