Threading and Concurrent Programming Examples

Qt makes it easy to write multithreaded applications. Signals and slots can be used to safely communicate between threads in your application.

Mandelbrot Example

Mandelbrot example demonstrates multi-thread programming using Qt. It shows how to use a worker thread to perform heavy computations without blocking the main thread's event loop
