WiFi Guy

He hacks your network and let's you know how vulnerable you are, so they don't have to!




What I Learned:

WiFi Guy was a very beneficial learning experience. For the first time in my educational career, I was exposed to the exec functions, forks, and pipes used in coding frontends. Also, through the designing of the GUI, I was for the first time exposed to GUI programming, some basic Qt essentials, and the Qt Designer development environment.

Overall, Qt is pretty easy to work with, especially for the fact that it uses C++, and Qt Designer is extremely easy to use to design GUIs; however, since Qt is bloated with too many features and widgets, and for the simple fact that it uses C++, Qt can drastically affect performance. I'd recommend working with GTK over Qt for performance-critical applications, but if one is designing an application that contains a relatively unsophisticated GUI with few events then I'd say it is simply a matter of preference.
