Good day, I see that the ArcGIS for QT page has instructions for using QT Creator https://developers.arcgis.com/qt/get-started/
Are there steps for setting up for Visual Studio 2019 after you install the ArcGIS SDK?
Thanks again.
@NothernCoder thanks for clarifying. There is a visual studio 2019 plugin you can use to use Qt with the VS IDE, but we've not tested with that. There is a lot of extra stuff Qt does and Visual Studio typically doesn't know about it (like moc, for example).

Our team mostly uses Qt Creator since it provides the best cross-platform development experience across macOS, Linux and Windows, but it is subjective. Another option would be to configure your build with qmake on the command line, or even with CMake and then use VS Code as your editor. It should work, but we've not tested that either.
Hi @NothernCoder, are you running into any specific issues? Typically on Windows, assuming you have Visual Studio 2019 installed, installing Qt and using Qt Creator that is installed along with Qt will auto-configure the kits for you.
Generally, the workflow should go something like this (the order isn't mandatory)
After that, when you launch Qt Creator (the one included with Qt install), you should be ready to start writing some code. Our post installer at the end of our installation will optionally include Qt Creator templates to get you started, if you choose to install them (it's optional).
Hi @JamesBallard1, I'm trying to use the newly installed ArcGIS Runtime SDK QT in Visual Studio but don't see any steps to go about doing this. I like to code in Visual Studio myself and the official page only shows configuring QT Creator.
Thank you, I'll take a look at pointing the new ArcGIS Runtime SDK QT install in Visual Studio.
