What is the best place to start learning Qt? [closed]

Question

I can't find a good place to start. It is such a large framework I don't know where to begin. Should it be GUI development using Qt Creator and all of those tutorials? There are just so many... Where do you start with Qt?

P.S. Do you pronounce it "Cute"?

Edit: I have Qt Creator installed and all of the Qt documentation is built in. The problem is there is just so much. The page mentioned below says to buy the book and start doing some tutorials. The problem is none of the tutorials seem to say "Start here for people who have NEVER seen Qt before and don't even really know what it is"

Have you had a look at the awesome Qt documentation? :) http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/how-to-learn-qt.html This page gives you some pointers on how to get started. You'll definitely want to bookmark http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/index.html

In my opinion there's no right end to start from - where you should start depends on what you want to do with Qt. But if you're going to create GUIs then GUI creation and programming is a good start.. I'd advice you to have a look at the Qt demo app, explore the parts of Qt and then do a few tutorials.

Usually I learn by implementing something. Have an idea of what I want to do, then implement it whilst reading documentation.
