what is the creator and design studio workflow
-
I am trying to figure out QT's workflow. I scanned through the qt academy to see if I could find anything to no avail and the community is so much smaller than many other frameworks that there aren't too many posts to find.
I have the education version of qt so I have creator and design studio. My biggest question is how on earth do I connect these two together. I make a project in creator and it doesn't make a .qmlproject file so design studio can't open it as a project. When I make a project with design studio it doesn't create any of the cpp, cmake or qml files that creator is wanting so I can't build what it made.
It seems like they focused so much at making one for devs and one for designers that they forgot that these two were supposed to be working together on the same projects?
I come from flutter and react native. I seen this visual builder with design studio and thought "oh that's kinda cool and could potentially speed up some things" but I just can't see the point of it if these two entities don't talk at all
I must obviously be missing something. If anyone can give me some clarity or even just a good starting place that would be much appreciated
p.s. creator as an ide is just horrible. Like just let me create empty folders and move files around in the project explorer. every other ide does

- Use Qt Design Studio to design the GUI
- Export your project to CMake by enabling the CMake generator (see https://doc.qt.io/qtdesignstudio/studio-exporting-for-c.html or https://doc.qt.io/qtdesignstudio/studio-cmake-generator.html )
- Open the top-level CMakeLists.txt in Qt Creator
