Managing Projects

  • Creating Projects

    To set up a project, you first have to decide what kind of an application you want to develop: do you want a user interface based on Qt Quick or Qt widgets. Second, you have to choose the language to implement the application logic: C++, JavaScript, or Python.

  • Version Control Systems

    The recommended way to set up a project is to use a version control system. Store and edit only project source files and configuration files. Do not store generated files.

  • Configuring Projects

    Installation programs and project wizards create default configurations for Qt Creator and your projects. You can modify the settings in the Projects mode.
