Developing Qt Quick Applications

  • Creating Qt Quick Projects

    You can use wizards to create Qt Quick projects.

  • Using Qt Quick Designer

    You can use the code editor (Edit mode) or the visual editor (Design mode) to develop Qt Quick applications.

  • Creating Components

    You can use basic QML types to create your own components that you can combine with ready-made Qt Quick Controls and Layouts (available since Qt 5.1).

  • Creating Screens

    You can combine basic QML types with ready-made Qt Quick Controls, Dialogs, and Layouts (available since Qt 5.1) to create screens. You can use states and transitions to navigate between screens.

  • Exporting Designs from Graphics Software

    You can export designs from graphics software, such as Adobe Photoshop and GIMP, to QML files. You can then edit QML files in Qt Creator.

  • Using QML Modules with Plugins

    QML modules may use plugins to expose components defined in C++ to QML applications. Qt Creator cannot load the plugins to determine the details of the contained components, and therefore, the modules must provide extra type information for code completion and the semantic checks to work correctly.
