XXX
The "QML Intro" section has been temporarily removed, as it includes mostly
outdated information. However, it has some pertinent information, so we
should review it and extract the useful documentation at some point, for
inclusion somewhere in the documentation. In particular, the documentation
related to using QtCreator for QML development seems useful.

\title QML Application Developer Resources
\brief Essential documentation for QML application developers
QML is a declarative language that allows user interfaces to be described in
terms of their visual components and how they interact and relate with one
another. It is a highly readable language that was designed to enable
components to be interconnected in a dynamic manner, and it allows components
to be easily reused and customized within a user interface. Using the
\c QtQuick module, designers and developers can easily build fluid animated
user interfaces in QML, and have the option of connecting these user
interfaces to any back-end C++ libraries.
This page links to all the information you need to start developing
applications with \l{Qt QML}{QML} and \l{Qt Quick}.
\section2 Other QML modules
Qt Quick only provides basic visual types, much of Qt's functionality is exposed to QML
through other modules. If you require the functionality of those modules, you should browse
their QML documentation. Qt Essentials modules exposing QML types include:
\list
\li \c Qt3D for 3D graphics rendering.
\li \c QtSensors for using device sensors such as accelerometers.
\li \c QtMultimedia for playing and managing multimedia content and cameras.
\li \c QtLocation for using GPS and mapping data.
\li \c QtSystems for reading system info and interacting with services.
\li \c QtWebkit for rendering web content.
\li \c QtPim for interacting with contact and calendar information.

\section1 In-Depth Documentation
\section2 What is QML?
QML is a user interface specification and programming language.
It allows developers and designers alike to create highly performant, fluidly
animated and visually appealing applications. QML offers a highly readable,
declarative, JSON-like syntax with support for imperative JavaScript
expressions combined with dynamic property bindings.
The QML language and engine infrastructure is provided by the \l {Qt QML} module.
For in-depth information about the QML language, please see the
\l{Qt QML} module documentation.
\section2 What is Qt Quick?
Qt Quick is the standard library of types and functionality for QML. It
includes visual elements, interactive elements, animations, models and views,
particle effects and shader effects. A QML application developer can get
access to all of that functionality with a single import statement.
The \c QtQuick QML library is provided by the \l{Qt Quick} module.
For in-depth information about the various QML types and other functionality
provided by Qt Quick, please see the \l{Qt Quick} module documentation.
