I know I'm a little late to the party here, but I just wanted to let you know that you're doing God's work with these tutorials. You keep them short and simple, no mumbling or rambling, and one can easily understand what's going on. Super impressive :)

Holy Cow! These vids are just fantastic! I've got GUI's up in running in a matter of an hour watching you. Absolutely incredible tutorials. Thank you much.

You have opened my dream which I have thought for creating the App a long time ago. I just wanted to make a software which is able to connect with an Arduino board. Thank you it is so understandable. I will watch all your videos in the quarantine time. Sorry for my English if it is incorrect. I am from Kazakhstan.

I have to say that you are very well spoken, and mild-mannered. Please keep the videos coming!

I am new to python and QT designer, your video is great help. Thanks Man

Thanks for the tutorial. It helped A LOT. Some other QT tutorials on YT are over 5 years old and cause newbs like me major confusion. This series is very helpful.

YOU ROCK! Keep going with PyQt!


May offer a suggestion? Plan your UI, name every object that you want to access using code as you go along. It should be the first thing you do. However, you do not need to name items that you will not be accessing codes (ex.: labels). Maybe a suggestion for a short video?

another way to pass arguments to assigned functions (without calling them instantly) is partial function (from functools import partial)
example assignment would look like:
self.actionNew.triggered.connect(partial(self.clicked, ‘New was clicked’))
for this purpose both methods work the same, but some advanced cases may favour partial function... it's not redundant to lambda ;-)

God bless you brother. I love your tutorials so far. To think you're giving us such an amazing information for free at the expense of your own time, man you're simply amazing. Thank you brother, I'll be forever grateful

This is the 3rd video I'm watching. Great videos man, I love the effort you put into making every step clear but not overwhelming for newbies! Keep up the good work :)

Awesome tutorials on qt. I was struggling to understand from other people on youtube and on web and I like your approach of going from basic and building up bit by bit. Keep them coming.

You can also just go Form > View Python Code directly in the Qt Designer menu

To clarify, once you generate the .py code and you start to make manual edits to it, you cannot go back and use the QTDesigner again and re-generate the .py file because it will wipe out all of your manual changes...correct?
