No I have not. I started some code over the Thanksgiving Holiday that i will be putting in; but it will still require a bit of work. It does provide a nice starting outline and is based on QApplication/QGuiApplication from Qt5 git. I am looking to use the playground to push the development effort more for both myself and anyone else that wants to help out.
