Sounds good.

So may I ask what your goal is? Is it:
* Proof that your code compiles?
* Run a small (console) application?
* Look at the generated assembly output?
In principle, one could think of a "scratch" wizard, that
* Creates a project with a unique name like
"QTC-Scatch-2018-12-22-17-08"
* Uses qmake as build system
* Uses the default "desktop" kit with it's Qt version
and compiler
* Adds a main.cpp and opens it in the editor
You could than choose other compilers through the usual Projects mode,
build, run and debug your project. Other compiler options could be set
in the Project .pro file.
That would reduce the setup to two or three clicks and looks simple
enough to be integrated without big effort.
What do you think?
Best regards,
André

Hello,

were we could code in a single source with no Build System setup?
I always go to websites like coliru, godbolt, wandbox,... to do some
tests(test concepts, see if I can template something,...) because this
is so convenient to just start writing code without any setup. But this
has many drawbacks like, no or almost no completion, no debug and needs
internet.
In QTC I would easily see a section in welcome page "scratch-pad" with
previous ones and a button to create a new one. I don't think we should
care about file location or any setup, source files could be stored in
QTC user data folder. Maybe we could just switch among available
compilers and set manually compile args like godbolt.
Am I the only one who miss this feature?
If no I will definitely open a BR.
Best regards and happy holidays,
Alexis.
