currently, the PLCnCLI command-line tool is integrated into the Eclipse IDE via Eclipse Plug-In. I'm not familiar with Qt Creator IDE, but I think it should be possible to create a solution for this IDE. In this case you have to realize a solution with Qt Creator IDE as editor and PLCnCLI as project creator/manager tool (via command-line).
Can you give me a feedback why you want to use Qt Creator IDE instead of Eclipse IDE, please? I assume that both editors/IDE's have the similar functionality.
We us Qt Creator in different other projects. Therefore it would be nice to us the same, familiar IDE and the Qt Framework to create solutions for PLCnext.

Hello Thomas,
please understand that we currently only support Eclipse and Visual Studio, because these IDE's are used by most of our customers.
If the Qt Creator IDE support the CMake, you can try to create a solution based on CMake for Qt Creator by yourself.
Please see the following Makers Blog, may be it will help you:
