60min: Building Qt with Qbs

Event_large

No one is likely to disagree that Qt's build tool, qmake, is a bit long in the tooth. The Qt Build Suite (qbs) was introduced several years ago, reimagining what a complete build system could be. After several years of iteration and maturity, it is showing great potential for replacing qmake with Qt itself. This talk discusses the current state of the wip/qbs branch, and what kind of improvements (both from a performance and a developer happiness perspective) we can expect from the new setup.
