Hello everyone.

This probably has been asked before, but I can't seem to find any straight answer. As I understand, QT5 will mark widgets as deprecated, and QtQuick will be recommended alternative from then on. But what is Quick really for? It seems to lack most standard desktop widgets, so how am I suppose to switch from widgets to Quick if there are no counterparts for most widgets? Or maybe I got something wrong, and widgets counterparts will be added in QtQuick2.0, or maybe widgets are not as dead as I think?

Can Quick be effectively used in standard desktop applications right now (with QT-4.8, and by standard applications I think of anything that use: filedialogs, scrollbars, databases etc.) or is it just fancy GUI creation tool that shouldn't be used for desktop applications?

Could somebody please explain this, because I am lost :/

Thanks for the answers and sorry for any language errors, English is not my native language ;]
