Qt Creator provides two integrated visual editors, Qt Quick Designer and Qt Designer. The integration includes project management and code completion.
You can either create Qt Quick projects from scratch or import existing projects to Qt Creator. You can use the code editor (Edit mode) or the visual editor (Design mode) to develop Qt Quick applications. However, the visual editor only supports Qt Quick 1, which is offered in Qt 5 only for compatibility with Qt 4. We recommend that you use Qt Quick 2 for new Qt 5 applications.
Widgets and forms created with Qt Designer are integrated seamlessly with programmed code by using the Qt signals and slots mechanism that allows you to easily assign behavior to graphical elements. All properties set in Qt Designer can be changed dynamically within the code. Furthermore, features such as widget promotion and custom plugins allow you to use your own widgets with Qt Designer.
Mobile devices have been designed for use when mobile. Keep the characteristics of mobile devices in mind when you create applications for them.
You can use Qt APIs to create plugins that extend Qt applications. This enables you to add your own widgets to Qt Designer.
