Who this book is for

If you have little or no experience with Qt and Qt Creator, and might be using it for the first time as part of a college class or an open source project, or you just want to experiment with the platform and the IDE, this is the book for you.

I would especially encourage you to read this book if you're a student using Qt Creator in your university class on C++ programming! You should focus on the first two chapters and as much of the rest as you need for your course.
