Create File Browser in Python and Qt (PyQt5 or PySide2 QTreeView and QFileSystemModel)
Welcome to our tutorial on creating a file browser in Python using Qt libraries such as PyQt5 or PySide2. In this video, we’ll guide you through the process of building a functional and user-friendly file browser UI with the help of QTreeView and QFileSystemModel.
Join us as we explore the powerful features of Qt and demonstrate how to create a file browser that allows users to navigate and interact with the file system. We’ll explain the concepts of model-view programming and show you how to connect the QTreeView widget to a QFileSystemModel for efficient data representation.
Learn how to customize the file browser’s appearance, such as displaying icons and file details, implementing sorting and filtering options, and handling user interactions like double-clicking and context menus. We’ll also cover techniques for navigating directories, creating new folders, and opening files.
Throughout this tutorial, we’ll provide clear explanations and code examples to help you understand the implementation process. By the end of this video, you’ll have a solid foundation in creating a fully functional file browser using Python and Qt.
