Qt Creator is a cross-platform integrated development environment (IDE) tailored for maximum developer productivity. Qt Creator supports the use of coding assistants like GitHub Copilot during programming. It aids developers in creating software for desktop, mobile, and embedded platforms.
Qt Creator's advanced code editor lets you write software in C++, QML, JavaScript, Python, and other languages. It features code completion, syntax highlighting, refactoring and has built-in documentation at your fingertips.
Qt Creator integrates with most popular version control systems, including Git, Subversion, Perforce, and Mercurial.
Import an existing project or create one from scratch – Qt Creator generates all the necessary files. Support for CMake and cross-compiling with CMake or qmake build tools is included.
Build for and run your software on desktop, mobile and embedded operating systems. The build settings allow you to easily switch between targets.
Test and debug applications in conditions practically identical to those on your target device.
Compile source code into native machine code, accelerate start-up time and UI performance, and protect your source code and intellectual property.
With the GitHub Copilot integration*, developers can focus on complex and innovative software creation instead of working on boilerplate or repetitive code. GitHub Copilot improves the completion of coding tasks up to 55% faster. Developers can benefit from context-aware suggestions in the following use cases:
Developers can select whether they want to see only suggestions from code with permissive licenses. The use of a business account for GitHub Copilot ensures that prompts and suggestions are not retained by GitHub. For more information on GitHub Copilot, check GitHub pages.
