Running a Qt app over the web

Question

I am writing an application using Qt and want to try and deploy it as a web-application. I want user\'s to be able to use my application by accessing it through a web browse

Answer 1

If all you have is a Qt application, then the best you can do is use Qt 5 and run it using a remote visualization package:

1. Use WebGL streaming, introduced in Qt 5.10. Qt exposes a browser-connectible interface directly, without need for third-party code.

2. For Qt 5.0-5.9, you can use the vnc platform plugin. Then connect using a web-browser based vnc client.

For many uses it might be sufficient, and certainly it's much less effort than coding up a web app.
