This is a place for QML tutorials (more like cookbook recipes) I'm (User:Elliot) writing as I learn QML.

Why am I writing this? After all, there is already plenty of documentation for QML/Qt Quick: see http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qtquick.html, for example.

But little of it is specific to MeeGo. And the "developer story" is there, but not documented thoroughly (it probably will be shortly).

So while I'm going through the process of building a (semi) realistic application with QML to use on MeeGo, I'm documenting useful things as I learn them. There will doubtless be overlap with other tutorials/blogs/official docs, but hopefully having all this stuff in one place, tailored for MeeGo, will be useful to others.

The recipes I've written so far:

Eventually they should probably go into a /QML/ namespace.

You're probably going to want to look at the QML elements documentation while you go through these recipes. You can find it at http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qdeclarativeelements.html.

http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/ might come in useful, too, if you want to learn more about Qt and go through the official tutorials.
