\title Creating Qt Quick Projects
\image qmldesigner-new-project.png "New File or Project dialog"
When you create a new Qt Quick project from scratch, you have the following
options:
\list
\li \gui {Qt Quick Application} creates a Qt Quick application project
that can contain both QML and C++ code. The project includes a
QDeclarativeView. You can build the application and deploy it on
desktop and mobile target platforms.
You can select a template that uses either the built-in QML elements
or Qt Quick components for a particular platform. The built-in QML
elements enable you to create cross-platform applications with a
custom look and feel, whereas the components provide the look and
feel for a particular platform.
The Qt Quick 1 Application wizard imports Qt Quick 1.1, and
therefore, you can use it without changes to develop for platforms
that run Qt 4.7.4 (such as MeeGo). To develop for platforms that run
Qt 4.7.3 (such as Maemo), you must change the import statement to
import Qt Quick 1.0.
The Qt Quick 2 Application wizard imports Qt Quick 2.0. Use it to
develop for platforms that run Qt 5.
\li \gui {Qt Quick UI} creates a Qt Quick UI project with a single QML
file that contains the main view. You can review Qt Quick UI
projects in a \l{Previewing QML Files}{preview tool} and you need
not build them. You do not
need to have the development environment installed on your
computer to create and run this type of project.
\li \gui {Qt Quick Application (from Existing QML File)} converts
existing Qt Quick applications to Qt Quick application projects.
This enables you to run them from \QC and to deploy them to mobile
devices.
\li \gui {Qt Quick Extension Plugins} (in the \gui Libraries category)
create C++ plugins that make it possible to offer extensions that
can be loaded dynamically into Qt Quick applications. Select
\gui {Qt Quick 1 Extension Plugin} to create extensions for
Qt Quick 1 applications and \gui {Qt Quick 2 Extension Plugin} to
create extensions for Qt Quick 2 applications.
\endlist
\section1 Creating Qt Quick UI Projects
Select \gui File > \gui {New File or Project} > \gui Applications > \gui {Qt Quick 1 UI}
or \gui {Qt Quick 2 UI} > \gui Choose and follow the instructions of the wizard.
\QC creates the following files:
\list
\li .qmlproject project file defines that all QML, JavaScript, and image
files in the project folder belong to the project. Therefore, you do
not need to individually list all the files in the project.
\li .qml file defines an element, such as a component, screen, or the
whole application UI.
\endlist
The \c import statement in the beginning of the .qml file specifies the
\l{http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qdeclarativemodules.html}{Qt modules} to
import. Each Qt module contains a set of default elements. Specify a version
to get the features you want.
To use JavaScript and image files in the application, copy them to the
project folder.
\section1 Creating Qt Quick Applications
Select \gui File > \gui {New File or Project} > \gui Applications >
\gui {Qt Quick Application 1 (Built-in Elements)} or \gui {Qt Quick
Application 2 (Built-in Elements)} > \gui Choose, and follow the
instructions of the wizard.
\note The SDK for a particular target platform might install additional
templates for that platform. For example, the \gui {Qt Quick Application for
MeeGo Harmattan} template is installed as part of the MeeGo Harmattan tool
chain and the BlackBerry 10 and QNX templates are installed as part of the BlackBerry 10 NDK,
BlackBerry NDK, or QNX SDK.
\QC creates the necessary boilerplate files. Some of the files are
specific to a particular target platform.
\section1 Importing QML Applications
If you have existing QML applications that you want to run in \QC or deploy
to mobile devices, select \gui File > \gui {New File or Project} > \gui Applications >
\gui {Qt Quick 1 Application (from Existing QML file} or \gui {Qt Quick 2 Application
(from Existing QML File)} > \gui Choose to import the main .qml file in your project.
\image qmldesigner-import-project.png "Select Existing QML File dialog"
All the other files in the project are automatically added to the
application project.
\QC adds references to the QML files to a project and creates the additional
files necessary for deploying applications to mobile devices.
