Using Maemo Hildon UI elements in Qt Quick

Qt Quick's primary language, QML, provides a new rapid development methodology for Maemo, MeeGo and Symbian. However, it's yet to get a core set of UI components. Qt Quick Components is the official answer; but is currently under development. There's also the community-developed Colibri; but there's now a third option: using the current theme's own elements to provide widgets which match the look & feel of the rest of the system. Thomas Perl explains, This QML demo uses the current theme graphics of Hildon and provides QML components that can be used just like their Hildon counterparts, but inside QML UIs. This is not a complete library, just a test of what could be possible in case anyone wants to step up and create and maintain a Hildon library of QML components. A video of Thomas's experiments is available, and the source code is in Gitorious for further collaboration. Later in the issue, there are photos of the same code; with a Hildon theme; running on the Nokia N8 (a Symbian phone).
