| Qt is supplied with a number of example applications and demonstrations that |
| have been written to provide developers with examples of the Qt API in use, |
| highlight good programming practice, and showcase features found in each of |
| Qt's core technologies. |
| |
| The example and demo launcher can be used to explore the different categories |
| available. It provides an overview of each example, lets you view the |
| documentation in Qt Assistant, and is able to launch examples and demos. |
| |
| Documentation for examples can be found in the Tutorials and Examples section |
| of the Qt documentation. |
