+\title QML Script Compiler
+\brief A tool to compile functions and expressions in QML.
+
+The QML Script Compiler will compile functions and expressions in QML files of an
+application into C++ code within limitations set by the nature of JavaScript.
+It replaces \e qmlcachegen, and simply generates C++ code in addition to byte
+code for functions that can be exhaustively analyzed. The following flow chart
+explains the compilation of \e qmlsc.

+
+\section1 Limitations when compiling JavaScript
+
+Many JavaScript constructs cannot be efficiently represented in C++. \e qmlsc
+skips the C++ code generation for functions that contain such constructs and
+only generates byte code to be interpreted. Although, most common QML expressions
+are rather simple: value lookups on QObjects, arithmetics, simple if/else or loop
+constructs. Those can easily be expressed in C++, and doing so makes your
+application run faster.
+
+\e qmlsc is available for commercial customers and some of its features are
+merged into \e qmlcachegen, which continues to be available with all versions of
+Qt.
