\title Installation
\title Installing \QDS
You can install \QDS either using a stand-alone installation package or \QOI.
The installers copy all the modules and tools you need
to design UIs and preview them on the desktop to your computer and configure
them for you. \QDS is available for Linux, \macOS, and Windows operating
systems. For more information, see \l{Supported Platforms}.
Install \QDS using \QOI. If you have Qt installed, install \QDS using
\QMT. If your business wants to explore \QDS, get
the free Qt evaluation package. If you're a student or a teacher,
get \QDS using the Qt Edu license.
To begin, create a \l{Qt Account}. This account gives you access to a web
portal to manage your licenses and download the standalone \QDS package or
\QOI. Alternatively, you can download an evaluation
package \l{https://www.qt.io/product/ui-design-tools}{here}.
After the installation, you can start exploring \QDS by following
\l{Tutorials}{tutorials}, opening
\l{Examples}{examples}, watching videos, and reading
this manual.
\section1 Stand-Alone Installation
You can download the \QDS installer for your operating system (\macos,
Linux, or Windows) from your Qt Account. Start the installation as you
would for any other software, and follow the instructions of the
installer to complete it.
\QDS is available on several operating systems. For more information, see
\l{Supported Platforms}.
\section1 Using \QOI
You can download \QOI for your operating system
from your Qt Account.
Download \QOI from your Qt Account. If you don't have a Qt Account,
create one \l {Qt Account}{here}.
\list 1
\li Start \QOI.
\li Select \uicontrol {Design Tools}.
\image studio-installation.png "Design Tools selected in Qt Online Installer"
\li Open \QOI.
\li Select \uicontrol {\QDS}.
\image studio-installation.webp "Qt Design Studio selected in Qt Online Installer"
\li Select \uicontrol Next and follow the instructions of the
installer to complete the installation.
\endlist
For more information about the installation process, see
\l{Getting Started with Qt}.
If you can't use \QOI, use \QDS offline installer instead. Get \QDS offline installer
from your Qt Account under \uicontrol Downloads > \uicontrol Products.
\section1 Using \QMT
\QMT is included in each Qt installation. If you already have Qt, use \QMT to install \QDS.
\list 1
\li Open \QMT.
\li Select \uicontrol {Add or remove components}.
\li Select \uicontrol {\QDS}.
\li Select \uicontrol Next and follow the instructions of the installer to complete
the installation.
\endlist
\section1 Using Qt Evaluation
Businesses can get a free Qt evaluation package. To start the trial of \QDS, fill the
evaluation form \l{Try Qt}{here}.
\section1 Using Qt Edu license
Students and teachers can get a licensing package for learning purposes.
To apply for the educational license and install \QDS, see \l {Qt Edu for Designers}.
