# Developing Qt Quick Applications

- Creating Qt Quick Projects

  You can use wizards to create Qt Quick projects.

- Editing QML Files in Design Mode

  You can use several different editors and views in the Design mode to develop Qt Quick applications.

- Creating UIs

  Qt Quick enables you to build UIs around the behavior of components and how they connect with one another. You create components using Qt Quick and QML types that are available in the Design mode, manage their relationships, and specify their properties.

- Adding Dynamics

  You can animate the properties of UI components and create connections between them to enable them to communicate with each other.

- Editing 3D Scenes

  You can use the 3D editor in the Design mode to edit files you created using 3D graphics applications and stored in one of the supported formats. You cannot create 3D models or other assets in the editor, but you can import the assets you need and work with them to create scenes and states, as well as the transitions between them.

- Browsing ISO 7000 Icons

  You can add ISO 7000 icons from a library delivered with Qt Creator to UIs and change their color.

- Using QML Modules with Plugins

  QML modules may use plugins to expose components defined in C++ to QML applications. Qt Creator cannot load the plugins to determine the details of the contained components, and therefore, the modules must provide extra type information for code completion and the semantic checks to work correctly.

- Converting UI Projects to Applications

  Qt Quick UI projects (.qmlproject) are useful for creating user interfaces. To use them for application development, you have to convert them to Qt Quick Application projects that contain .pro, .cpp, and .qrc files.
