Contribute to Qt

Our repositories are now open for contributions of code, translations, examples and other related material. We strongly believe in the potential of our community and want to work with its members to help guide and shape the future direction in Qt. Now they can not only provide feedback and bug reports but we will also accept contributions and functionality into Qt.

We have chosen Gitorious to host our open repositories and manage contributions. We have been working with the founders of the Gitorious project to develop and improve the Gitorious infrastructure - including adding team support and wikis - and we will continue to do so.


The Roadmap


The intention of the roadmap is to indicate the future direction of Qt development, and to inspire Qt users to help shape that direction – whether through feedback and suggestions or by contributing their own code to Qt. It is a living document, and will be updated regularly as our plans evolve.

Provide Feedback!

How can you contribute?

 

  • Create a personal clone of Qt on Gitorious.
  • Push your changes into a branch in your personal clone.
  • Create a merge request for your changes into the Qt repository.
  • Review and agree to our contribution agreement (you only need to do this once, unless the license changes)
  • A team of Qt core developers will review the merge request.
  • If your contribution satisfies Qt’s technical requirements then we have to submit the code to our legal department for a code scan. The code scan takes usually about two weeks. (sorry about that – we’re working on automating this in the near future)
  • After the legal scan we will include the changes and they will appear in the Qt repository.
