    Hi All,

    I'm looking to build a prototype on a raspberry pi and happen to come across qt when searching on how to build embedded apps.

    I wanted to know if qt can be used to build an app like the one in Mirror fit https://www.mirror.co/ which will run directly on the device.

    Or

    would it be easier to run Android OS on the device and then build an app that can access the hardware?

    I would really appreciate any guidance please.

    Regards,
    Jag

      I think it will be easier with Qt.

        I depends, do you have C++ knowledge?
        If you don't know anything about C++, using Qt can be difficult.

        If you are confident with Android/Java, go with Android, there are many Android images available for RPi.
        A quick search on internet gives me this link => https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/install-android-raspberry-pi/

        By the way, you could also create an Android App with Qt ;)

        It is an old maxim of mine that when you have excluded the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. (Sherlock Holmes)
