If you are using the digital version of this book, we advise you to type the code yourself or access the code via the GitHub repository (link available in the next section). Doing so will help you avoid any potential errors related to the copying and pasting of code.

All code examples have been tested using Qt 6 on the Windows platform. You may see failures if you use Qt 5. However, they should work with future version releases too. Please make sure that the version you're installing to your computer is at least Qt 6.0.0 or later so that the code is compatible with the book.
