How to transform (compile) a JSON to create a Qt Widgets ui form

Stenek

Is there a a way to transform a JSON schema file to a Qt ui form? (using QFormBuilder or QUiLoader perhaps?) In turn, the form should allow -- through manual form input -- the creation of JSON file "instances" as specified by the original JSON schema.

Searching the web, I found a tool -- json-editor -- that accomplishes our intended purpose but in the form of JSON -> JavaScript -> HTML Form -> JSON which is obviously not native to Qt and we want something Qt native.

Please help.

You have to write it on your own. There is no json descrption for the ui file available - only the ui format (=xml)

@Stenek, have you found a solution?
I have the same problem and I've found https://github.com/agoose77/qt-jsonschema-form.
It looks unmaintained, but it may be a good start.

@basil-peace just curious:
how that JSON definition for the UI is created? or how do you get it from?

isn't it easier to use the standard XML format for .ui files?

Thanks.
