If we want to use QtWebEngine, we need Qt5. The package to install Qt5 in Windows is available here.

For QtWebEngine Qt needs to be built with Visual Studio (Visual Studio 2013 at this time)

to test QtWebEngine, in QtCreator try the example-app nano browser

The Vagrant & Docker way

We document here our efforts to get a reproducible environment with qt5, qml-material that can run the QML version of NoteOrganiser. The development branch for this is qml-design.

Currently, the Vagrantfile contains only a call to the Dockerfile.

vagrant up --provider=docker

Should start the application - eventually! (TODO: look into making docker the default provider, inside the Vagrantfile)

The Dockerfile should:

  • install qt5
  • clone and install qml-material
  • use the local checked-out repository (data sharing? TODO)
  • run qmlscene main.qml (See this SO post about running GUI environments in docker, and also this post).
