    Description

      Hello,

      As an absolute beginner of Qt and a person who had a good experience in C++, I went for reading and working on Qt documentations to learn Qt.
      I had heard much on being great of those documentations so I installed Qt creator IDE and read those docs carefully and tried to do all the instructions for having a real feeling of learning Qt by them. But the outcome was something odd!

      Although I had much excitement for learning Qt and did my best, but those docs made me very confused. The issue is that they are too complex for a beginner and the designers (to me) have thought that any one who is about to read those docs has an experience on Qt already. But this does not occur always!
      This is the thread I created when I wanted to enter the Qt:
      https://forum.qt.io/topic/63499/how-and-where-to-start-qt5

      I'd like to suggest that you have a look at the following link which I read it and is one the bests on starting Qt with:
      https://doc.qt.io/archives/4.3/tutorial-t1.html

      That's simpler than those documentations, hence very better for beginners of Qt.

      I'd also like to suggest that you revise those docs and design them to be a step-by-step resource like the above link. You are to consider the beginners of Qt more than before please.

      Thanks for your time.
