    \title Simulating Complex Experiences


    \QDS enables you to connect UIs to different forms of data from various
    sources, such as QML-based data models, JavaScript files, and backend
    services.
    \if definded(qtdesignstudio)
    You can also connect your UI to Simulink to load live data from a
    Simulink simulation.
    \endif

    \list
        \li \l{Loading Placeholder Data}

            You can create QML files that contain placeholder data, so that
            you can test grid, list, or path views, even though you don't
            have access to real data.

        \if defined(qtdesignstudio)
        \li \l{Simulating Application Logic}

        You can use JavaScript to generate mock data for your UI.

        \li \l{Simulating Dynamic Systems}

        Use the Simulink connector to connect a Simulink Simulation Model to
        your UI. Simulink is a MATLAB-based graphical programming environment
        for modeling, simulating, and analyzing multi-domain dynamic systems.
        \endif

        \li \l{Using QML Modules with Plugins}

        You can load C++ plugins for QML to simulate data.
