Qt Quick, create Qt apps with Javascript

• joe_the_user 16y ago
  As a QT programmer already, I'm excited by this approach to creating 'hybrid' applications.

  Install Qt 4.7, download Qt Creator 2.1 (http://qt.nokia.com/developer/qt-qtcreator-prerelease/ http://qt.nokia.com/developer/qt-qtcreator-prerelease/) and follow the tutorial (http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtcreator-2.1-snapshot/creator-qml-application.html http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtcreator-2.1-snapshot/creator-qml-a...), it's really a great tool.

  Not immediately clear: Where and how could I deploy an app like this? What are its dependencies? Does it run in the browser or an OS? How do I set up the environment to compile it?

    You need the QML runtime (http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qmlruntime.html http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qmlruntime.html) which you can embed in any Qt C++ app or deploy on mobile devices. The idea is that you code the app in C++ and code the user experience with this language, writing bindings to your models on the way.

  Another interesting connection between Qt and JavaScript is QWebKit which allows you to run web applications (HTML/CSS/JavaScript) within a GUI widget. QWebKit also allows you to add custom GUI handlers to events like clicks to certain links, or to prefix each loaded page with a certain piece of JavaScript.
