\title Building and Running
\image creator_buildingrunning.png
\QC provides support for running and deploying Qt applications built
for different target platforms, or using different compilers, debuggers, or
Qt versions. \l{glossary-buildandrun-kit}{Kits} define the tools,
\l{glossary-device}{device} type and other settings to use when building and
running your project.
\list
\li \l {Previewing}
You can use the QML live preview to preview a QML file or an
entire Qt Quick application on the desktop, as well as on
Android and embedded Linux devices. The changes you make to
the UI are instantly visible to you in the preview.
\li \l{Building for Multiple Platforms}
\e {Build configurations} contain everything you need to compile
the sources into binaries. Build configurations use the tools and settings
defined in their corresponding kit.
\li \l{Running on Multiple Platforms}
\e {Run configurations} start the application in the location
where it was copied by the \e{deploy configuration}. By default,
when you select the \uicontrol Run function, \QC builds the project,
deploys it to the device defined in the kit, and runs it there. However,
if you have not made any changes to the project since you last
built and deployed it, \QC simply runs it again.
\li \l{Deploying to Devices}
\e {Deploy configurations} handle the packaging and copying of
the necessary files to a location you want to run the executable
at. The files can be copied to a location in the file system of
the development PC or a device.
\li \l{Connecting Devices}
When you install tool chains for device types as part of a Qt distribution,
the build and run settings for the devices might be set up
automatically. However, you might need to install and configure some
additional software on the devices to be able to connect to them
from the development PC.
\endlist

\list
\li \l{Customizing the Build Process}
By default, running an application also builds it and deploys it to
a location from where it can be run on the device. You can change
the relationship between the build, run, and deploy configurations.
