- [QTBUG-31565] Make the deployment of Qt Quick Controls applications easier
The QtQuickControls plugin now embeds its qml files and the Styles and
Private submodules files using the resource system. While the qml and
js files are still available for development convenience (for Controls,
Controls.Styles and Controls.Private), only the qtquickcontrols plugin and
the qmldir file are needed while deploying the QtQuick.Controls module and
its submodules.
