Create & translate software manuals with QML

on YouTube ↗24m

" summary

Claims that documentation lives inside the QML app by adding an attached QML property to UI blocks and using runtime introspection to collect them into a list model. The app draws overlay rectangles from item bounding boxes, shows brief translated help, and exports scripted screenshots per machine to generate a tailored web manual with QR links. Implementation is lightweight QML plus a thin C++ model, uses GammaRay for inspection and a Qt Creator snippet/plugin to generate IDs, and supports notes, feedback and automated translation.
