One of the fun things when creating a language binding for a over-sized library is deciding what to do first. With wxWidgets, I think I started with getting some basic functionality working and then randomly implemented widgets as I came across them.
For QtMax, I think a good course of action is to work through implementing the various examples provided with Qt. This should result in a working API along with a fairly rich set of documented, working examples.
I'm currently working through the widget examples, since the UI-side is probably one of the most used features of the library.
Other than losing my way a little with QPainter (and subsequently slinking over to the qt-interest mailing list to ask for assistance), it's coming along very well. As of this post, we have working examples of lineedit, analogclock and translucentclock. Although, to be fair, the translucent clock example comes from the Qt magazine (Qt Quarterly). But it looked cool, so I couldn't resist ;-)
