The Qt Project announced today the release and general availability of Qt Creator 7 as the latest stable version of this powerful, free, open-source, and cross-platform Integrated Development Environment (IDE) software for building modern Qt app on GNU/Linux, Android, macOS, iOS, and Windows systems.

Coming almost four months after Qt Creator 6, the Qt Creator 7 release is here to switch the default backend to Clangd, as well as to make use of the recently released LLVM 14 collection of modular and reusable compiler and toolchain technologies for C++ support.

Qt Creator 7 uses Clangd for code completion and highlighting on the current document, as well as for global indexing. However, if you experience any issues with Clangd’s global indexing, the devs recommend that you disable the feature from C++ > Clangd > Enable background indexing.
