# Designing User Interfaces

Qt Creator provides integrated visual editors for designing Qt Quick and widget-based applications in the Design mode. The integration includes project management and code completion.

- Developing Qt Quick Applications

  You can use wizards to create Qt Quick projects containing boiler-plate code that you can edit in the Design mode.

- Developing Widget Based Applications

  Widgets and forms created with Qt Designer are integrated seamlessly with programmed code by using the Qt signals and slots mechanism that allows you to easily assign behavior to graphical elements. All properties set in Qt Designer can be changed dynamically within the code. Furthermore, features such as widget promotion and custom plugins allow you to use your own widgets with Qt Designer.

- Optimizing Applications for Mobile Devices

  Mobile devices have been designed for use when mobile. Keep the characteristics of mobile devices in mind when you create applications for them.
