What is an UI file?

Qt User Interface

UI files are a powerful tool for creating beautiful user interfaces. Qt Design Tools provide an intuitive, streamlined approach to building and configuring complex UIs. With this system, users store information about the interface's components, like widgets and connections, in easily edited ".UI" files.

The Qt framework efficiently handles conversion into code. This saves time and simplifies the development process. Making changes is easy – just adjust the UI file and let Qt do the hard work of translation. The result is intuitive design with coding made simple.
