Qt and Windows 10

on YouTube ↗21m

" summary

Microsoft unifies platforms under the Universal Windows Platform while allowing desktop app sideloading and store distribution, and Qt already runs on desktop with Qt 5.6 adding full Universal binary support. Development requires Visual Studio 2015 and targeting WinRT for mobile and IoT; Windows 10 IoT Core currently supports only a few boards (Raspberry Pi 2, Intel MinnowMax, Galileo), allows one UI process and no store, and needs ARM/MSVC builds. Recompilation plus packaging is typically sufficient to move a classic Qt app to the store.
