Summary

In this chapter, we installed QGIS 3.4 and took a first look at the interface. We highlighted some of the exciting new features in the QGIS 3.4 release and looked at how they will impact us. We also explored the panels, toolbars, and menus that make up the QGIS user interface. At the end of the chapter, we interacted with the browser and the layers panel by dragging our data in and looking at how to save a project. Finally, we covered where to find help and report issues. In the next chapter, we will use QGIS to work with data.
