Python "Mobile Snakes" presentation

Back in November I gave a quick presentation to the Perth Django/Python Users Group.

It covered a brief history of Python on mobile devices (Maemo/MeeGo/Nemo/ Sailfish), and an example Python/Qt application which has a custom UI for each platform.

The slides can be downloaded here:

Cross-platform mobile python development with native UIs using QML

I've been playing round with developing native UIs for different mobile platforms using QML.

I've quite a fan of 'common-base, separate UI' development, and QML provides a great way to implement it.

Code is available on github.

Harmattan (Maemo 6 / MeeGo)
