I have an app heavily dependent on Multimedia. it took me about a week and a half total i created a header "Qt6Bridge.h" that defines a bunch of stuff one way or another depending on qt5 or qt6 (have to keep qt5 build alive until Qt6 has all the functionality in need). eg: #ifndef _H_Qt6Bridg

Thiago, Thanks for the clarification. I was convinced that qmake was not available anymore. My bad! :/ Still, I think 10 days of evaluation is a really short period of time. I would love to hear feedback from people who have started porting their software to Qt 6 and how the effort of such mig

Hi, What do you do with a 10 days evaluation of Qt 6? I would say that taking into account the fact that Qt has a new building system and qmake is not available anymore, porting an existing project takes much more than 10 days. Any feedback from users that have already tried Qt 6 and are porti
