Easy way to build PocketBook apps with Qt Quick and QML
Hey all, I've been experimenting with homebrew apps for my PocketBook and found the latest firmware ships with Qt 6.8.2 and that the QML of many built-in apps is also available. It seems PocketBook created their own QPA plugin named "pocketbook2", presumably adding some device optimizations which is used by default.
After some wrangling with CMake, I managed to build an app that dynamically links Qt and I made a "kitchen sink" app to play around with them.
I packaged everything in this GitHub repo I just created alongside my "kitchen sink" example. I only tested this on my InkPad Color 3 - I'm fairly confident it'll work on other devices with newer firmware, but would appreciate it if you test and share your results.
