    Description

      Building Qt should be easy from Qt Creator, yet it's not possible out-of-the-box.

      The guides for 5 and 6 also only show how to build via the command line.
      (I haven' even found guides on how to approach patching just a single library).

      It should be easy to:

      • Build from scratch just by pressing play
        • Targets should be selectable
        • Other options should be selectable and/or auto-detected

      It should also be easier to:

      • Create a copy of a version
      • Patch just part of the code
      • Build only the parts that need to be rebuilt (default target: all detected targets)
