About:
Qt Declarative provides the QML language and engine, Qt Quick scene graph, and Qt Quick Controls for building modern, fluid UIs. It enables hardware-accelerated 2D/3D visuals and reactive UI logic. This formula installs the core modules required to build and run QML-based applications.
Key Features:
  • QML language and engine for declarative UI
  • Hardware-accelerated Qt Quick 2D/3D rendering
  • Qt Quick Controls for cross-platform UI components
  • Qt Quick Layouts for responsive interface design
Use Cases:
  • Building cross-platform desktop and embedded UIs
  • Creating hardware-accelerated visualizations and dashboards
  • Prototyping reactive UIs with QML and JavaScript
Alternatives:
  • wxWidgets – Imperative C++ toolkit; Qt Quick offers declarative UI and GPU rendering.
  • Electron – Web-tech stack; Qt provides native performance and tighter OS integration.
  • GTK – C-based toolkit; Qt offers QML for rapid UI design and a broader ecosystem.
