~~=Qt Quick (Qt User Interface Creation Kit)=~~

[http://doc.qt.io/qt-5.0/qtquick/qtquick-index.html Qt Quick] ''[qt.io]'', first introduced in [http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.7 Qt 4.7] ''[qt.io]'' and in [[:Category:Tools::QtCreator|Qt Creator]] 2.1, is a high-level UI technology that allows developers and UI designers to work together to create animated, touch-enabled UIs and lightweight applications. It includes:

~~# New Tools in the Qt Creator IDE: including a visual editor that allows UI designers and developers to cooperate, working on the same code in an iterative approach~~

~~# QML (Qt Meta-Object Language): an easy to use, declarative language~~

~~# QtDeclarative: a new module in the Qt library that enables a new declarative programming approach~~

And while no C++ programming skills are needed to use Qt Quick, it is 100% based on Qt and can be extended from C++ (and other languages, thanks to [[:Category:LanguageBindings|the bindings]]), limited only by your creativity.

~~==Scope (Qt Creator 2.1 and Quick)==~~

* QML project wizard and project management (new file format for pure QML applications)

* Advanced QML editor with syntax highlighting, code completion, integrated help features and more

* Qt Quick Designer: Visual WYSIWYG editor to create Qt Quick user interfaces (technical preview)

* Qt Quick Components: Common UI Elements that fit into platform Look & Feel

~~==QML vs. Widget-based GUI==~~

~~Qt beginners often ask: What option will be the best for creating my user interface. With Qt there are 3 techniques (which can be integrated):~~

* using Qt Designer to create *.ui files, a XML-based UI description

* coding the setup of your UI in C++ with Qt widgets classes

* write or visually design (or modeling with Qt Creator 2.1) QML files

~~''The HowTo is still to be done'' but use the [[Tagging|tag]] [http://qt.io/search/tag/qml~vs~widget qml vs widget] ''[qt.io]'' when searching and finding, thx :)~~
