\brief The Qt Quick module implements the "standard library" for QML
The Qt Quick module is the standard library for writing QML applications.

+While the \l{Qt Qml} module provides the QML engine and
language infrastructure, the Qt Quick module provides all the basic
types necessary for creating user interfaces with QML. It
provides a visual canvas and includes types for creating and animating
visual components, receiving user input, creating data models and views
and delayed object instantiation.
-The Qt Quick module provides both a \l{Qt Quick QML Types}{QML API} which supplies

+The Qt Quick module provides both a \l{Qt Quick QML Types}{QML API}, which
+supplies QML types for creating user interfaces with the QML language, and a
\l{Qt Quick C++ Classes}{C++ API} for extending QML applications with C++ code.
\note A set of Qt Quick-based UI controls is also available to create user
interfaces. See \l{Qt Quick Controls} for more information.
-For those new to QML and Qt Quick, please see
-\l{QML Applications}
-for an introduction to writing QML applications.
+If you're new to QML and Qt Quick, please see \l{QML Applications} for an
+introduction to writing QML applications.
\section1 Using the Module
\section2 QML API
-The QML types in Qt Quick are available through the \c QtQuick import. To use the
-types, add the following import statement to your .qml file:
-
-\qml
-import QtQml
-\endqml
+\include {module-use.qdocinc} {using the qml api} {QtQuick}
\section2 C++ API
-Using the \l{Qt Quick C++ Classes}{C++ API} requires linking against the module
-library, either directly or through other dependencies. Several build tools
-have dedicated support for this, including \l{CMake Documentation}{CMake} and
-\l{qmake}.
+\include {module-use.qdocinc} {using the c++ api}
\section3 Building with CMake
-Use the \c find_package() command to locate the needed module components in the
-Qt6 package:
-
-\snippet code/doc_src_qtquick.cmake 0
-
-See also the \l{Build with CMake} overview.
+\include {module-use.qdocinc} {building with cmake} {Quick}
\section3 Building with qmake
-To configure the module for building with qmake, add the module as a value of
-the QT variable in the project's .pro file:
-
-\badcode
-QT += quick
-\endcode
+\include {module-use.qdocinc} {building_with_qmake} {quick}
