How to build cross-platform desktop apps in C# using QML.NET

QML is a declarative language that allows user interfaces to be described in terms of their visual components and how they interact and relate with one another. Qt Quick is the standard library of types and functionality for QML. It includes visual types, interactive types, animations, models and views, particle effects and shader effects.

Qt/QML can be used from C++ and JavaScript. But QML.NET bridges the Qt/QML world and the .NET world so you can use C# to build cross-platform desktop applications.

In this episode Max Mommersteeg from Info Support will show you how to build a cross-platform desktop application using QML.NET and Visual Studio Code.

Check out the Github repo of QML.NET for more info:

I found community support for QML very minimal about 1.5 years ago. Asking questions on Stackoverflow did not solicit any answers. Is that better these days?
Besides that it's a cool idea to bring QML to .NET. Looks nice!

Can you please make a short tutorial how to use qml in c#. It would really help me out.

Please add some real world tutorials and sample projects, there is just too little documentation out there

What about deploying? Does .qml files compile with the assembly and if it doesnt, does .qml files compile?
