Frictionless Implementation of Production-Grade GUI on Torizon Embedded Linux

Paul Nieminen — Tue, 07 Apr 2026 10:07:15 GMT

Evaluating and starting to develop professional, production-grade GUIs on embedded Linux should be frictionless. Based on this statement, we are always working with our partners to improve the Qt developer experience. Together with Toradex we recently made major improvements to the Torizon Qt VS Code template, making it easier for you as a developer to use Qt Device Creation Enterprise workflows inside the same template that you might already have been using with the Device Creation Community Edition. On top of that, there is a brand-new Qt demo in the Torizon Demo Gallery which you can try right away.

Torizon is a production-ready, container-based embedded Linux platform that simplifies how Qt applications are deployed and maintained. Qt developers may already be familiar with Boot2Qt, which is a useful tool to get a Qt prototype running quickly. However, scaling that prototype into a secure, maintainable, and updatable product usually requires building and managing your own Yocto stack. Torizon removes this burden, providing a pre-integrated OS, hardware-optimized Qt runtime, OTA automated updates, CVE tracking and a consistent containerized workflow, letting you focus entirely on your Qt application instead of maintaining the underlying Linux distribution.Below you’ll find what’s new, why it helps Qt developers, and exactly how to try it.

The latest Qt release, Qt 6.11, is just around the corner. This short blog post series presents the new features that QML tooling brings in Qt 6.11. You can find part 1 on new qmlls features here, and part 2 on new qmllint warnings here.

In this blog post, we will start with a short recap on the context property and go through the new context property support in qmllint and QML Language Server.

REST Better with the Support of OpenAPI in Qt 6

tatiana.borisova@qt.io (Tatiana Borisova) — Tue, 10 Mar 2026 10:03:45 GMT

Some of you are following our works to improve connectivity of Qt-based apps. For example, in this blogpost we explained enhacements in the Qt's network stack for more efficient use of RESTful APIs starting with Qt 6.7. So, it might sound we are done with REST. Why bother about OpenAPI then? Well, while around 70% of all web services run on REST, around 20-30% of them use code generated from OpenAPI specification. How could Qt leave that out without helping our users to code less and create more?

The new Qt 6 OpenAPI module will become available with Qt 6.11 as a Technology Preview. The module introduces the Qt 6 OpenAPI generator, which generates Qt HTTP clients using Qt Network RESTful APIs.

It is important to note here that an OpenAPI generator for Qt 5 has been originally developed by the OpenAPI community. We took it into Qt 6, refactored it, and extended it.

In this blog post, you will learn about the new OpenAPI generator in Qt 6 and see how the new module can be used to implement a simple, Qt-based ChatGPT client application using specification of its API provided in the OpenAPI format.
