Hi:
So I have a lot of experience developing qt apps for X11, but am having a rough go of trying to get setup for Wayland. Can anyone point me to some resources for learning how to talk to the compositor (Phoc) for Mobian? I want to develop some custom (mostly keyboard) interfaces to help with a disability I have, but am having a hard time (e.g. sending keystrokes) finding examples and code which will help me... I have heard that all I need to do as an app developer is add a few flags to my qt app when I run it, but that advice doesn't help me with talking to the compositor, and setting up my kits for development has been a nightmare. Also: are people using Qt to develop Pinephone apps? If not, what? Sorry if these questions have already been covered, I will scour the forums in a bit, and thanks for any help...
