Where boost really comes to shine is, that it is essentially a toolbox, full of helpful little libraries, plus a few big libraries handling things like parsing, filesystem, sockets, threading or GPU computing. I don't use boost as much as I could, often I already have an alternative in Qt (filesystem e.g.). But when you write more then one application, you start too see the benefit of writing generic code, which is where boost comes in. Also Qt locks you into this one big framework, which has advantages such as compiling across many platforms, but also means, that often you don't have the need to work with the standard or boost. Qt offers a few interfaces for C++11, such as using lambdas as slots. So every class that is involved with Qts inner workings, such as signal and slots, is a concrete class. One thing which makes this really difficult, is that QObject derived classes can't be templates, as the MOC isn't smart enough for this. I like that Qt does not expose it so much to the user as boost does, but as an advanced user, I'd like to see more possibilities to combine Qt and templates/generic programming. My biggest groom with Qt is, that it does not really allow or understand the generic potentials of C++. Qt does a lot of things with the Meta Object Compiler, which currently aren't possible in C++. To be honest, its not the moc, which gets its fair share of critics from the C++ Community. which brings me to the few things I really don't like about Qt. It is my preferred workhorse for C++ today, also because I use Qt so much I guess. Also, with the Qt SDK ships a new version of QtCreator, which is a really nice cross platform IDE with great Qt integration. Qt traditionally does not expose a lot of templates and fancy C++ to the user, so that working in Qt and with Qt APIs is relative easy to get a lot of work done.

Qt has updated its sources to C++11, and continues so for C++14, but as Qt is a huge code base, this takes time. It is actively developed, and releases about twice a year a new version. Also, with its model/view system, Qt offers me an easy way to do display and edit my data in Qt. I also like that Qt has a very nice DB API, offering many different Databases, yet I end up only using SQLite so far. It offers a good and mature UI implementation with QWidgets, but also has with QML a modern UI which you can use for mobile, desktop or embedded Apps. Qt is the framework and library set I use the most in my daily work.

This series is not meant as a general introduction, yet I try to show you how and what I use of Qt and boost. Regarding Qt, I wrote an introduction a two years ago, also for boost, there is an excellent website/tutorial about boost by Boris SchГ¤ling ( buy his book! )). This first post is rather short, but I'd quickly try to give you an overview, why I use both Qt and boost in the same application. This is the start of a series of posts, in which I'll try to document my weekly work on a new application, build with Qt and boost.
