    Hi @gmatbarua,

    What do you mean by "repository" and "official installer"?

    Also, this forum does not currently support polls.

      Hi @JKSH ,

      By repository he probably means the Qt package that is shipped with his linux distribution.
      ie. debian uses apt-get to install them. Those are likely to be of an older version compared to the ones when you use the online installer.

      Edit : since Qt can be used cross platform, a poll doesn't seem to be a good way to get statistics. We all use different OS 'es.
      online installer for :
      Win 8.1, 10
      Mac OS X El Capitan
      Debian Jessie (for the time being)

        @Eddy said in Which Operating system and Qt development tools/libraries combination do you use for development?:

        By repositor he probably means the Qt package that is shipped with his linux distribution.

        Makes sense :)

        I'm mainly using Windows 10 + Official installer.

        I'm also using, in a VM, Ubuntu 17.04 + Official installer. The distro-provided Qt packages tend to be a few versions behind.

                        Debian buster (testing) with Qt built from git + the version from the repo (currently 5.7.1).
                        Creator as IDE.
                        g++ as a compiler.

                        I only test on Windows, but there I use the online installer to get what I need. Creator as IDE and mingw as compiler, I rarely compile with MSVC.
