 Hi,
 
 my way was the opposite. I had an app for Windows and then went for Android. 
 As Sailfish OS came out, I ported it to Sailfish OS. The porting afford to 
 Sailfish OS was a lot higher than for Android. So you are fine when using 
 basic QtQuick 2.0 there without any Silica (I use separate pro files for 
 Windows/Android and Sailfish OS).

  Subject: [SailfishDevel] porting QML app to non sailfishos archs
  
  Hi in short time I'm going to 'port' my pure QML application to android and 
  ios.
  
  Currently I import QtQuick 2.0 and QtQuick.LocalStorage 2.0
  (and Sailfish.Silica 1.0)
  
  I use LocalStorage and XMLHttpRequest, I try to keep it simple, I'm using 
  only Rectangle, Row, Text, TextInput, MouseArea, few anchors.
  In short, nothing specific to Silica.
  
  Do you think that I'll be fine with this ?
  Do you have some experience to share ?
  Is QML on android and ios stable ?
  
  
  Thanks for your attention,
  wish you a great week,
  Mike

Re: [SailfishDevel] qt5 ?

Wow thanks for the info, plenty of good news!
I'm impressed by how much u r bleeding edge .. kernel 3, qt5 based UI, btrfs, 
wayland!!!
It is a strange feeling to have much newer technology on the smartphone than on 
the laptop (debian wheezy)
and still it's very stable, rock solid!
Thanks for your hard work!

 Objet: [SailfishDevel] qt5 ?
 
  Hi sorry if missed this previously on some announcement or mailing list,
  are there any plans / ETA to move the sailfishos SDK to qt version 5 ?
 
 Hello ! Trying to not post with webmail client (not sure of the result)
 
 The SDK uses Qt 4 to display Qt Creator, however you are already using Qt 
 5 to develop. Indeed SailfishOS is based on Qt 5. So technically, SailfishOS
 SDK is already on Qt 5.
 
  Also, do you know if QML on qt 5 is much different from the current one ?
 
 Developing with QtQuick in Qt 5 should be quite close to Qt 4. However, you
 won't be able to develop apps like on Symbian or the N9. The API used on
 SailfishOS for their UI components is called Silica, and you have the 
 documentation here:
 
 https://sailfishos.org/sailfish-silica/
 
  btw I love the phone and I love to develop on it, QML is very relaxing!
  I have a neo, my primary phone is an n900 from years,
  had a firefox os (cheap htc) but is currently, sadly, very flawled by 
  hardware and software problems
  and the jolla, I think, is the natural evolution of the neo and the n900.
  I loved it from the first moment, I'm very impressed by it, everything 
  worked out of the box,
  which for a techie power user is not to be taken for granted.
  
  Also, the battery duration is from another planet, I don't know how you did 
  it :)
  True that I don't use it with a sim card but it lasts ages!
  
  Btw number 2, sorry .. what about lte support ? :)
 
 LTE support is coming with the next update, as stated in this mailing list
 already:
 
 https://lists.sailfishos.org/pipermail/devel/2014-May/004253.html
 
  I work with phones, as many of you I had dozens, from the first StarTac 
  ones :)
  The Jolla phone and Sailfish OS beats, destroys, pulverizes, hands down, 
  everything else I've used and  I use now.
  The usability (gestures) is genius, very quick and natural, and still power 
  user.
  And it is OPEN .. so fresh and inspiring!!
  
  
  Thanks and have a nice day, pls stop the drama!
 
 Have a nice day !
 
  Mike

Hi!

 Developing with QtQuick in Qt 5 should be quite close to Qt 4. However, you
 won't be able to develop apps like on Symbian or the N9. The API used on
 SailfishOS for their UI components is called Silica, and you have the 
 documentation here:
 
 https://sailfishos.org/sailfish-silica/

I've studied and used a little 'silica', but I must say that I'm not crazy 
about the graphical result.
I don't like very much the transparencies and the general lookfeel.
Mostly because I'm a QML noob, in fact I like it on the phone OS
but not on my applications.

So I prefer to declare:
import QtQuick 2.0
import Sailfish.Silica 1.0

and then use solid, filled squares all around :) (Rectangles and MouseArea for 
buttons)

Hey please don't disable the possibility to 'bypass' silica themes! :)

Here is a simple example of what I mean: http://pastebin.com/aVSnpBi3

Btw, does someone have experience in 'porting' a sailfish based QML application 
to Android ?


Thanks for supporting, wish you all a nice week-end!
Mike
