What did you do after you downloaded the code?
-
@JKSH ,
I tried these following steps:
- git clone git://code.qt.io/qt/qt5.git
- cd qt5
git checkout 5.11 - ./init-repository --module-subset=default,-qtwebkit,-qtwebkit-examples,-qtwebengine
- git pull
- git submodule update
- mkdir ~/qt-build
- cd ~/qt-build
- ../qt5/configure -opensource -nomake examples -nomake tests -confirm-license
- make -j4

The steps look OK.
What is the problem?

@JKSH ,
I can able to build the source code using make command. but I am facing some problems while building the source code in qt creator.
Qt creator is showing only the submodule .pro files, but not showing their header and source files. -
Hi,
That sounds strange but, in any case, you shouldn't try to open the complete Qt source tree in any editor be it Qt Creator or any other. There are literally tens of thousands of files to open/analyse.
You should rather only open the module that you would like to work on. This will avoid you to waste system resources.

@SGaist ,
I am not able to configure qt source code in qt creator.

That's a step that you need to do anyway outside of Qt Creator.
However after you configured and build it, you can point Qt Creator to the sources as well as corresponding build folder.

Like @SGaist said, you cannot use Qt Creator to configure and build Qt. You must use the console (command line).
