To ensure the usability and user-friendliness of your application, take into consideration the following guidelines for MeeGo application development:
Currently, the main SDK is the MeeGo SDK, which allows you to create native applications using Qt/C++ and Qt Quick. This SDK is based on the Qt Creator SDK, and contains support for Qt 4.7 and Qt Mobility 1.0.2 frameworks.
When you have created your project with the selected SDK, you can start coding your application.
If you are using the MeeGo SDK, you can use Qt Creator during the coding process for on-device debugging, such as setting breakpoints, and other standard debugging activities. To debug your application, follow the instructions in Debugging with Qt Creator.
The MeeGo SDK generates packages for deploying software to MeeGo devices. When you run your application with Qt Creator, an .rpm package is created automatically. You can also package your application without running it with Qt Creator.
