Configure Visual Studio 2019 to create applications using Qt 5 framework (works with Qt 6 too)

Configure Visual Studio 2019 with Qt5 framework to create cute applications. //Using Qt version 5.15 and Visual Studio 2019, other versions, including Qt 6 and Visual Studio 2022, work in a similar way. Note: in case you run into problems with the latest releases of Qt VS tools plugin (some of the new releases might have issues on some systems) you can get an older version of the Qt add-in from here: Qt VS tools versions 2.4 or 2.5 seems to be more stable If you install older add-in and you decide to continue to use the older version, don&forget to go to manage extensions in Visual Studio and uncheck the automatic update for Qt VS addin. In case you use Qt6, remember that it requires C++17, so you&need to change the standard in project properties: Configuration properties - General - C++ language standard set it to: ISO C++17 standard (std:c++17) Note: don&forget to change that for Debug/Release and all other project configurations you have. You can get Qt and Visual Studio from their official websites: In case you are looking for an practical introduction to Qt check out this playlist:
