\title Designer-Developer Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
\QDS enables designers and developers to work together on common
|
||||
projects to develop applications. Designers use the \l{Design Views}{views}
|
||||
in the \uicontrol Design mode to modify \l{UI Files}{UI files} (\e .ui.qml),
|
||||
whereas developers use Qt Creator to work on the Qt Quick (\e .qml) and
|
||||
other files that are needed to implement the application logic and to
|
||||
prepare the application for production.
|
||||
|
||||
Use the \l{Using Git}{Git} version control system to ensure that changes
|
||||
are not lost when files are passed back and forth between designers and
|
||||
developers.
|
||||
|
||||
\QDS \l{Creating Projects}{projects} come with boilerplate code for a
|
||||
working Qt 6 application that you can build and run in Qt Creator using
|
||||
CMake. Therefore, you can open, build, and run the projects with Qt Creator.
|
||||
|
||||
\QDS continues to use the \e .qmlproject file format, while \QC uses a
|
||||
\e CMakeLists.txt file as the project file. This enables you to share
|
||||
your project as a fully working C++ application with developers.
|
||||
|
||||
If you add or remove QML files in \QDS, you have to regenerate the
|
||||
\e CMakeLists.txt project configuration file by selecting \uicontrol Build
|
||||
> \uicontrol Run > \uicontrol {Generate CMakeLists.txt Files}.
|
||||
|
||||
If you use Git, you can clone an example project
|
||||
\l{https://git.qt.io/public-demos/qtdesign-studio/-/tree/master/playground/AuroraCluster0}
|
||||
{here}.
|
||||
|
||||
The following image shows the example project structure and contents in the
|
||||
\l Projects and \l {File System} views in \QDS and Qt Creator:
