QtQuickTemplate Demo

QtQuickTemplate Demo is a tiny, focused sample app built with Qt 6 (Qt Quick / QML) and a bit of C++23, meant to demonstrate a clean starting point for real apps—without burying you in framework noise.

It’s essentially a “living README”: install it, tap around, and you’re looking at the template’s architecture and UI system in motion.

What this demo showcases

Design tokens + theming
A centralized Theme singleton drives colors, typography (MD3-style scale), spacing, shape, and animation values—so your UI stays consistent and easy to evolve.

Light/Dark mode toggle
Switch palettes at runtime to verify contrast and component behavior.

Custom-styled Qt Quick Controls
A dedicated AppStyle module provides styled versions of common controls.

Style Showcase screen
A scrollable gallery of controls (Button, TextField, CheckBox, Switch, Slider, ProgressBar, ComboBox, TabButton, ToolTip, etc.) so you can visually sanity-check the whole style in one place.

NavigationController with history
Loader-based navigation with back/forward stacks—simple, explicit, and easy to extend.

Adaptive layouts
Portrait and landscape shells that respect safe areas and rearrange header/content/footer appropriately.

Modular QML structure
Pages, templates, and reusable UI components organized like a real project—not a tutorial blob.

Who it’s for

Qt/QML developers who want a practical reference project

Anyone evaluating a “template-first” approach to cross-platform Qt app structure
