<![CDATA[Tree model in QML without C++]]>Hi

can you create a model that can be used for treeview using qml only?

all articles I found implement the model in c++

I found two helpful pure QML examples for custom made tree views that use QML ListModel and Javascript arrays, e.g:

Youtube - TreeView component in pure Qt Quick
https://gist.github.com/pcdummy/c03845aa9449168b7d24c491ad913fce

QMLRearrangeableTreeView from Eric Gregory which showcases drag&drop. I extended it to make it editable, and save/load the structure via a JSON string:
QMLRearrangeableTreeView for edit&save

Hope this can help.

Hi
I think you need to use c++ for that.
Sadly.

Im not QML user but the only thing about pure QML models i could find was this
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtquick-xmllistmodel-qmlmodule.html
So not sure you can defien new models in QML alone.
Could be cool though :)
