You can build QT applications in CLion. QT Provides CMake modules that take care of all details.

The following CMake script builds the example application 'Dynamic Layouts Example'

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.7)
project(qtlayoutexample)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 14)

# Find QT packages
find_package(Qt5Widgets)

# Add the include directories for the Qt 5 Widgets module to
# the compile lines.
include_directories(${Qt5Widgets_INCLUDE_DIRS})

# Find includes in corresponding build directories
set(CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR ON)
# Instruct CMake to run moc automatically when needed.
set(CMAKE_AUTOMOC ON)

# Add compiler flags for building executables (-fPIE)
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} ${Qt5Widgets_EXECUTABLE_COMPILE_FLAGS}")

qt5_generate_moc(main.cpp main.moc)

# Tell CMake to create the qtlayoutexample executable
add_executable(qtlayoutexample main.cpp dialog.cpp main.moc)

#Link the qtlayoutexample executable to the Qt 5 widgets library.
target_link_libraries(qtlayoutexample Qt5::Widgets)
