    I don't find any good description of the typename in functions such as QQmlComponent::loadFromModule

    In examples where the QML file is in the same folder as everything else, it seems to be simply the name of the QML file without extension.
    So "Main.qml" which is part of QML module "People" is loaded via

    QQmlComponent component(&engine);
    component.loadFromModule("People", "Main");
    

    However, in real life, it's rare that all files are in the same folder. So does the typename have to take subfolders into account? Or the resource path? Or something else?

      Looks like typically, the Typename should be the QML filename without extension, regardless of folder structure.
