There are two ways to create objects dynamically from JavaScript. You can either call

Creating a component is better if you have a predefined
item, and you want to create dynamic instances of that item; creating an item from
a string of QML is useful when the item QML itself is generated at runtime.
If you have a component specified in a QML file, you can dynamically load it with
