    I started out with two projects (running two separate qt creators with projects in separate directories) and now I start to have some code duplicated and want to have only one project. Is that possible, and if so, how do I make it into one project?

    I guess the key thing would be to make a new .pro file (move the source code and change the name of some files is the easy part)

      Look into SUBDIRS. It allows you to create multiple libraries (for shared code) and executables in a single project.

      However, since you're about to rewrite your build system files anyway, I highly recommend moving away from qmake and to use cmake for this. Cmake syntax is horrible but it makes managing more complex projects much easier.
