I'm creating an app using purely QML (all the design and logic is in QML and JS) and I need to know whether, when deploying this app to Android devices, if I need to include a short executable which loads the app using the QQmlApplicationEngine, or if developing with Qt for Android provides a QML engine of some sort which can load my app.

If Qt does have its own engine for Android, which is easier to use? And what do developers who make QML apps for Android use normally?

  • Are you asking if a native application/service is preinstalled on Android to load QML files dynamically? And if so, if that application can be configured with a folder it must loads the files from, making them look like they run as if packaged into an executable? Commented Sep 25 at 9:38
  • @Atmo Not quite. I mean if Qt has their own QML engine for Android which you can include for convenience Commented Sep 25 at 13:11
  • I do not understand what you are saying. What would be the difference between a QQmlApplicationEngine compiled into an Android app and that QML engine for Android? Commented Oct 6 at 14:31
  • No difference, just the convenience of having it be pre-compiled instead of requiring the developer to build it themselves. Commented Oct 6 at 15:57
