Qt Creator 19 IDE Released With Minimap, Built-In MCP Server For AI / LLMs
Qt developers today released Qt Creator 19 as the newest version of this cross-platform integrated development environment (IDE).
Qt Creator 19 adds an optional "Minimap" for showing a simplified overview of the document contents while scrolling. Qt Creator 19 also improves remote build device management for a better remote device experience.
Also new with Qt Creator 19 is a basic Model Context Protocol (MCP) server as the standard for interfacing between AI/LLM models like Claude Code and this integrated development environment. The Qt Creator 19 MCP server allows for opening files, building, running, and debugging software.
Qt Creator 19 also extends the project support with expanded handling for Ant, Cargo, .NET, Gradle, and Swift projects. Plus many other improvements as outlined via today's release announcement on Qt.io.
