Developing Qt Quick Applications

You can use wizards to create Qt Quick projects.

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

You can use predefined QML types to create components or use a set of Qt Quick Controls for creating classic desktop-style user interfaces using Qt Quick 2.1 (available since Qt 5.1).

You can use predefined QML types, Qt Quick Controls, and your own components to create screens. You can use states and transitions to navigate between screens.

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.

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.
