Porting desktop QWidgets application to Android
-
Reading http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/android-support.html, it seems like it is possible to port a desktop QWidgets application to Android. Is this really true? Finding it a little hard to believe. Are there any desktop QWidget-based applications I could have a look at?

Hi!
Is this really true?
Yes.
Finding it a little hard to believe.
Why? :-)
Are there any desktop QWidget-based applications I could have a look at?
Yes. E.g., see: Qt Widgets Examples.

Awesome, thanks. If anyone has any real-world desktop QWidget-based applications they've ported to Android, would love to hear feedback and see the result.
-
Has anyone done this at all?
I've done some more research and was advised that porting a desktopnQWidgets-based app to Android is not something you want to do just yet. Failing to find any examples of anyone successfully doing so strengthens those suspicions.
-
Of course people have done it. I have done it. There's nothing special or problematic in it. Just do it.
-
Show proof?

Try this :)
