Can't Find What Your Looking For? Perform Better Searches!

Trust me, I was there.

Im currently using PyQt to design my GUI's for Python, and finding better ways to code is super important if your not trying to repeat youself. This week Im trying to investigate on YouTube "How To Load PyQt5 UI File Dynamically". And I found what Im looking for, but its not enough of an example. These YouTube Videos only last 10-15mis, and the Influencer wastes like 5-7mins talking about his or her merch they want to sell etc.

If your like me, Im trying to solve my issue and move onto the next, one day when I dig myself out of the hole im in, ill buy everybodys merch! But ot today!

The Dilema

When you need more coding examples, Google seems to be weak in alot of ways when investigating your issues further. Better ideas? Tonight I discovered I can use the same search pattern as I do with Google on Github! Yup!

In the search I typed "Pyqt5 findChild" because inorder to use my PyQt5 UI File I need to use findChild to use the Labels and Textboxes etc. But Im the kind of learner that needs to see something to fully understand how it works. I found tons on github!

And it wasnt much about how to's, it was actual code that others have written, completed assignments. Yup! Great examples!

Not much time past after when I realized I need to do more searches this way, so I thought I'd share!

Quick read! Like, Share, Comment, Unicorn! lol Thanks!!
