    Hi there,

    Can I keep my project close-source?

    I'm from a small company to use QML for development. I use qt open source version, I don't use qtcreator. I dynamically link to qt.

    Thanks for your help.

      @xiemchen As long as you can fullfil LGPLv3 you can keep your project closed-source.
      Keep in mind that some Qt modules are licensed differently (in some cases only GPL)!

        @jsulm How to know whether my code fulfills the LGPL license?

        For example, if I link qquickwidget by setting in .pro file:
        QT += quickwidgets,
        I also search that the quickwidgets is under LGPL license after qt5.4 from:
        https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtquick-index.html#licenses-and-attributions

        So I can confirm that it's ok to close source my project, all right?

        Thank you:)
