Hey all! I am Priydarshi Singh, a sophomore student at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur. I have been selected for Google Summer of Code 2020 by Open Printing (under The Linux Foundation). My project <https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/projects/#6705486251950080> is to bring CPDB to Qt developers, in the form of a QtAddon.
The CPDB provides modules to access the different print technologies (CUPS, Google Cloud Print, and Print to File - as of now). It provides a common interface for listing available printers, configuration options and capabilities for each printer, printing jobs, etc. in the form of a DBus service. Through my project, I intend to build an Add-On for Qt such that developers may use it to leverage the capabilities of CPDB in the applications they build using Qt. The project will use cpdb-libs <https://github.com/OpenPrinting/cpdb-libs> as a dependency. The AddOn will provide easy usage for both QtWidgets and QtQuick development. I wish to ask for your views on the project. I would be highly obliged if you could share your suggestions with me. Regards, Priydarshi Singh
