Btw. Did you know? You can use Android skills either in Android Studio via .agent/skills folder or use directly the Android CLI. Combined that with Qt's GUI Design skill will make the development of Qt QML project into your native Android Kotlin or Java application easier! If you want even more Qt skills, check the rest agent skills. Sample of using skills within Android Studio project in video below.
Qt skills may help you unlock the capabilities of Qt Quick 3D in your application—whether you're building open-source projects or commercial products. Just make sure you stay in control, keep LLMS firmly in the passenger seat while you drive! 😊
