I had a stab at my first application - called quick-widgets. It allows to run Qt Quick applications (qml files) as desktop (hildon-home) widgets. The code is heavily based on venemo's q-extras and sticky notes. So A BIG THANKS for doing all the hard work.

There are plenty of qml examples out there you can use., e.g. http://http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qt-ma...eexamples.html


Features

• as said - run qml applications as widgets
• similar to qmlviewer, provide
  Code:

  runtime.isActiveWindow

  to suspend the widget.
• use the size of the qml application or specify custom size which will scale the qml if programmed to allow it
• as sticky-notes, restore all widgets on reboot

Usage

• Download the deb - I still have to put it in extras-devel.
• install dependencies -
  Code:

   apt-get install q-extras libhildon-extras1

• install quick-widgets -
  Code:

  dpkg -i quick-widgets_0.1.0_armel.deb

• start the application to add new widgets

To Do

• write qml bindings to system calls
• support custom c++ bindings
• listen to feedback

I am looking forward to people posting their useful widgets.
