The important parts of PyQt6 in bite-size chunks

Finding PyQt6 confusing? You're not alone. There's a lot of new concepts to learn when starting building GUI applications for the first time. I've been teaching & consulting PyQt for 8 years, and know all the pain points, gotchas and quick wins because I've walked into them before.

With this course I'll use my experience to save your time. Step by step tutorials going from the absolute basics & building up to genuine application structures.
